I'm trying to decide between the Sargava, the Lost Colony and Racing to Ruin PDFs for some extra Eleder information. I have the Pathfinder Chronicles: Campaign Setting, but it obviously only has an overview.
The main reason I'm looking to buy one of them is that I'm running a game set in Eleder tonight. It's a backup to our regular Serpent's Skull game, which is still stuck on Smuggler's Shiv, and we're introducing new characters with the idea that they'll replace any who die on the Shiv or in the early phases of RtR. Obviously, I'm going to want both books eventually, but we probably won't finish Souls for Smuggler's Shiv until after Christmas so I'm trying to leave options in case any of my players want to get me something. I'm okay with homebrewing and using the wiki (we did that last backup session) but I'd like to take some of the strain off my shoulders in imagining the city, and a PDF I can sit down and read really helps there. Does anyone have an idea which would be better, for my purposes?
Racing to Ruin has six pages of text on Eleder, plus a full-page map (albeit not a very detailed one). The Lost Colony has a lot of information on the history of Sargava and the country as a whole but only two pages on Eleder itself.
If your interest is in specific districts, places, and factions in the capital, I'd go with Racing to Ruin.
