So a couple years back, I posted this thread, where I asked for the bottom line of the various Adventure Paths.
I'm looking into recruiting for home games, and there have been several new adventures since then. I'm trying to figure out how to describe each AP to potential players, without spoiling any of the plot.
Anyone care to update Lord Snow's list?

Modified
Rise of the Runelords: Fantasy Tropes? Yes. All of them. Awesome? Yes - every bit of it. Save the world? Up to you.
Curse of the Crimson Throne: get to know a city and save it from a shadowy evil lurking in it's past.
Second Darkness: Rise from a simple bouncer in a casino to a hero who will save the world from the darkest secret of the Elves.
Legacy of Fire: adventure across Arabia! Get caught in a war between genie kind.
council of thieves: get to know a city and save it from a shadowy evil lurking in it's present.
Kingmaker: Explore the wilderness and build your own settlement, eventually becoming the leaders of a great River Kingdom.
Serpent's Skull: be Indiana Jones! Explore the jungles, discover ancient cities and survive the hostile locals.
Carrion Crown: Rampage through every single gothic horror trope you've ever heard of, with a sprinkling of Lovecraft for the hack of it.
Jade Regent: Travel to the exotic world of the far east and save it from evil spirits. Ninjas, Tengus and Oni are abound.
Skull and Shackles: be a pirate, terrorize the seas, and make silly accents as you roleplay golden hearted scoundrels.
Shattered Star: 6 of the biggest, coolest dungeon crawls Paizo ever did. NOTE: this is a sequel to Rise of the Runelords, Curse of the Crimson Throne, and Second Darkness.
Reign of Winter: work your way from Irrisen, already one of the darkest and weirdest of Golarion's countries, to some of the craziest adventure sites you'll ever encounter in D&D as you hop around the universe in
Wrath of the Righteous: be a kick ass mythic crusader and rise to such a great power you could challenge the demon lords themselves to a fight!
Mummy's Mask: Think of the move 'The Mummy' (the newer one - no not the one with the Rock but the first one in that series) brave tomb raiding and stop an ancient evil!
Iron Gods: What happens when aliens crash into a fantasy setting - weird - if you don't mind a bit of sci-fi in your fantasy (or fantasy in your sci-fi) then this bit of peanut butter cup will be your tasty treat! Comes with chainsaw blade!
Giantslayer: Wait I thought this was a giant AP why are we fighting orcs? Oh we'd die at level 1 - ok - then giants - giants - giants - if you are a Ranger with favored enemy giant you will love this AP soooo much
Hell's Rebels: Down with Thrune! Foster rebellion against the crown - start an uprising! Thwart Hell itself!
Hell's Vengeance: Be Evil! Put down those pesky do-gooder rebels! (might change based on remaining volumes)
Strange Aeons: Do you like tentacles? No not in that way - ugh why am I friends with you!
Rise of the Runelords- Gravity Falls
Hell's (Hunger Games) Rebels
Hell's Vengeance - It's Always Sunny in Cheliax
I'd do more but I'm pretty tired. :-)
Reign of Winter: A crazy blend of Frozen and Doctor Who!
...
I am freaking AMAZED I didn't see these similarities sooner.
