They aren't scenarios, but minor boons you can add to your character.
You just have to show that you have the book, so that your GM can initial the sheet.
I have a number that I have to fill out, myself. ^_^

Although trying to play through them might actually be a fun idea. I'm assuming that most of the characters and monsters presented in the books could be statted out and a large number of Pathfinder adventures are fairly linear to begin with...
Now I need to make a character that can use my murktouch cloak. :)

Count me in!
The characters in the Tales as rich as they are diverse, and their stories really bring the Pathfinder campaign setting to life. I've used many of the novels for inspiration as a player, and as a GM I've had a few characters make a cameo appearance, but actually being able to interact with them in the Pathfinder Society Roleplaying Guild sounds even more fun!
The Pathfinder Tales Books Club often discusses the relationship between the novels and the game, including two of the aforementioned titles - The Crusader Road and Forge of Ashes - so come and join us if you'd like to delve deeper into these stories before you get a chance to meet their characters in organized play!

John & Linda, thanks for getting this sanctioned. I was really hoping to be able to schedule a new module with sanctioned content at KublaCon in May.
Could you give us any guidance on how long each section would take? We have 4 hour slots to fit the module play into and need to make sure that everyone can walk away with a chronicle for the sections they sign up for (if they don't sign up for all of it). We have seen some very different play times for the 64 page modules from 3 full days for Dragon's Demand in campaign mode (that was great fun), to 5 or 6 four hour slots (Tears at Bitter Manor or Plunder & Peril).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for getting this sanctioned.

Are there any boons that would be beneficial to a level 11 Human Magus, a level 6 Dwarven Inquisitor of Gorum, a level 4 Tiefling Warpriest of Nethys, a level 1 Human Occultist, a level 3 Nagaji Bloodrager, or a level 1 Skinwalker Feral Hunter?
Most of the novel boons are modest, one-use things. A handful of them are longer-lasting, and in the recent batch, once you complete a 4-set of books, you can pick one of the boons to make more permanent.
They're minor nice things, but some of them are pretty ncie indeed. I'm looking at you, Reign of Fallen Stars.
My favorite of the Tales by far is Stackpole's Crusader Road! Such a good read! One of my sons has already read it twice, he liked it so much.

Daughters of Fury should be closer to Tears at Bitter Manor or Plunder & Peril. Dragon's Demand has around 10 pages of adventure than most modules, and is expected to level up a non-PFS character from 1 to 7 (as opposed to most 64-pagers, which level up their characters 3 times).
