Now available for preorder! Cover is likely final, but is subject to change.
Wow. We're really delving into Casmaon! Awesome!
So you go to Qadira, well that makes sense since we get a campaign setting book for Qadira around that time as well.

People who expect to have a pleasant and friendly time visiting lovely and friendly places should probably not play Strange Aeons. It is, after all, a horror themed Adventure Path! :-PWe... have to go to Okeno...
;_;
I'm okay with Eldritch Horror (I like Bloodborne just as much as you!)
... I... don't like Okeno. I don't like it.
Awesome! The back matter in this path is looking especially good so far.

Come back to Okeno. I've saved a seat for you, along with a glass of milk.

People who prefer to travel via ruby tuning fork, however, appear to be in for a wild ride!
Got to cut a deal with one of those dang Men of Leng, I'm guessing? Perhaps its off to the Dreamlands in #5.
Even though the name Count Lowls makes me lol, I'm looking forward to this entire AP sooooo much.

Part #5 is called "What grows within" which makes me think more of body horror and the seeds of a Great Old One inside the PCs.
Maybe a template out of "Horror Adventures"?And part #6 is "Black Stars Beckon" which should include a journey into space, probably to Carcosa on Hali in Aldebaran.

Some how I'm not surprised that moron Count Lowls is involved in this...

Now we know where some of his foreign assistants come from.
Hmm, curious about him. In his writeup for Rule of Terror it mentions "spends considerable resources patronizing fields of arts and science, including metaphysics".
Does this mean he spends those resources being a patron of them? Or the other meaning of patronizing?

The former. Though he also likely comes off as the latter, too. What with that one book he wrote was more-or-less entitled "Esteemed Professor is an Idiot."

What about people who derive enjoyment from unpleasantness? erm... Asking for a friend? ;)

Out of curiosity - how did you come by this information? I'm asking in earnestness because we're looking for a follow-up for our group in Kingmaker and this is high on our suggestion-list. Kingmaker ends this month and we're trying to figure out if its worth it to wait until August-Sept to run this. Our big questions are "where is this going" and "how important / well done is the lost memories part?" (I know the latter is a matter of subjective judgement ;)
The color out of space, the whisper out of time, the sanity out of your minds...
Sounds like fun!

Probably yes to the boring being an arm chair scholar. As for his foreign assistants I always assumed they were from Leng myself.

Generic,
I meant that even as a low level loser, he's always messing with stuff beyond his understanding. So to see him involved in this, not that surprising.
Ain't that the truth, Mister Daigle. :)
OKENO!!!!
Yellow sails and smiling faces!~
Nah. I think it's not luck so much as the fate the Old Ones chose for him.

On that I agree entirely. He's custom-made for, as Adam Daigle said, doing something just incredibly stupid on a Lovecraftian scale. I'm just surprised he'd be a villain this late in the AP. I figured he'd have met a gruesome end much sooner. Guess he's "lucky."
Regardless, very much looking forward to this AP.
I would guess some sort of possession/mind swap, and whatever is running around in his body IS high level.

The titles for parts 5&6 i got from Pathfinderwiki.
The spoiler from Paizocon.
Is is possible to get a bigger picture of the cover, like the other AP installments?
I'm kind of leery for this one. The last travel all around AP volume was in Serpent's Skull and I thought it was weak. Might have to wait for the review of this one. "Ecologies of" also turns me off. I haven't read an inspiring one yet.

Reign of Winter was more recent and was a pretty awesome travel AP
Well, Reign of Winter was more telporting than traveing. But there was also Jade Regent.
Serpent's Skull did have its problems, but traveling wasn't one of them in my eyes.

The problems that vexed Serpent's Skull have long-since been addressed (we no longer assign adventure path installments to authors we have never worked with before—if you want to write an adventure path installment for us, you have to prove you can hit deadlines and understand Pathfinder first by writing lots of other products for us), and have not been a significant issue since.
I love the cover of this installment. It looks like me reading the rules of Cthulhu Wars (tiny black letters on a dark/dirty green background). :)
Tito,
I still want to punch Lowls in the face....
But otherwise I'm looking forward to more details as we get closer to December.
