This is very much Jessica's triumph, as she wrote, masterminded, researched, and championed the vast majority of the book. My contributions included a section of game mechanics and some work on the character options.

Your contributions are appreciated nonetheless.
Sqqqqqqquuuuuueeeeeee!
Can't wait for this awesomeness!
Yay!
Cool! More Qadira! :) I'm up for that.
That sword he wields is called "Flame Dancer" or was that the name of his talking horse.
Why can't it be both, Dragon?

And saving me from looking stupid by making unbalanced character options, and talking me down from including a 10-page section on the spice trade, and helping me turn the genie-blooded horses from random monsters into mount options, and letting me talk through all kinds of ideas, and being a constant source of support and sanity. <3
John's official contribution may be authorship of one section and some development work, but he's influenced most of the book in one way or another. :-)

And I was soooooooooo close to getting to write the 100th campaign setting. This is number 99. 100 is a map folio. :(
Great!
Now we only need Taldor, Sargava and Varisia and all the old Player Companions have been converted to Campaign Settings.
Don't expect to see much carry-over from the Qadira player companion in this. :-)

NOOO! CUUURSE YOUUU, COMPTOOON!

Okay, I guess he's not all bad...

Okay okay, Compton rocks mightily!
High hopes for this book. Qadira is somewhere I've wanted to like but have been deterred due to lack of concrete information. Quite a way outside my traditional tastes, so once more Paizo are broadening my horizons.
Is there some introductory information about Qadira's Eastern/Northern/Southern(?) neighbours?
The 100th campaign setting book is a map folio, that is kind of disappointing to hear:(
Mh Prize/Compton on Quadira, that is indeed a nice surprise.
Will there be flying carpets and the like?

Did I hear correctly that this is expanding the map into Casmaron, and will there be information on Kelish?

Dear Jessica Price,
Please have more flying carpets in this book. Thank you.

Wait, where are the flying carpets?

That's why I asked Jessica Price to include more.

I wonder if this means we will be getting an AP set in Qadira and/or one of the neighboring nations soon after Strange Aeons.

Why wait until after Strange Aeons? I hear there's at least one adventure set near Qadira already!

And i hear it's written by a cool writer, too. ;-)
Is this inspired a little by "The nameless city"?

All I know is Quadira won't be the next AP but it MIGHT get some loving later on.
Also more flying carpets!

Sadly not.
AP#20 "Ironfang Invasion" will start in Nirmathas & Molthune.
It will then
go into the Darklands, a lost Dwarven Sky Citadel, the Elemental Plane of Earth and Orv.
AP#21 will be something with the 5 Runelords left alive and probably take Place in Varisia and surroundings.
Marc, has AP #21 been confirmed that or just a rumor?

This is the first time I've seen this rumor and I will squash it right now. I know what the AP after Ironfang is going to be (because it's my creation) and this isn't it.
Edit: Also, this is off topic for this thread.
While I am not as exited for this one as I am for the first world CS book, it will still be a instant buy for me.
Is it safe to assume this one will have a few monsters/NPC stats in it?

It does indeed have monsters.

Price! Yay!
Compton! Also yay!
I read through the whole thread and returned to the product discription before I realized that "Price! Yay!" referred to Jessica Price, and not a reduction in the price of the product. While that would have been cool, Jessica Price is great as well! :)

It is a last name that makes for a lot of pun opportunities. :-)

Well at your last name isn't "Pun";)

And without doubt we price that highly^^
So...talking Qadira...will there be male and mixed gender harems? I have some players who would certainly enjoy that.
Also flying carpets, mysterious lamps and rings!
Inner Sea Intrigue had some interesting stuff, it would be nice to see that continued every now and then. This here would certainly be a nice occasion.
Only, please don´t lock in prestige classes so hard on stats and ways to get there like in Inner Sea Intrigue please.
There aren't any prestige classes.
As far as harems: you only get one spouse, under Keleshite law. Members of the imperial family (which has ruled for several millennia and is over a thousand people at this point, with multiple branches) can also have consorts (usually nobility, often chosen for political connections), and concubines (usually commoners chosen for attractiveness, charm, etc.). There are no restrictions on gender. These nobles, regardless of gender, may have harems of either single or mixed genders.
Keleshite culture being matrilineal, however, children are members of their mother's family, so children of female consorts/concubines have no special status unless their mother is a noble, whereas children of male consorts/concubines (with a female noble) have the same status as the children of the noble's husband.
TL;DR: yes, there are male harems for those members of the imperial family that want them. Other nobility's lovers don't have recognized status the way imperial consorts and concubines do, but there's nothing stopping them from having multiple cohabitating lovers, other than the cost of supporting them.
What about flying carpets? I really need more flying carpets.

What, no porcupines? (See #4.)
Is there a Qadira/Keleshite specific Pantheon? Any new deity-related flavor material in this book?

There are short descriptions of nine new deities/cults specific in Kelesh, as well as information on Kelesh-specific forms of Sarenism.
There are also new ethnicities, and commentary about some of their religious beliefs.
