The kings and queens of Korvosa have long ruled under the shadow of the Curse of the Crimson Throne—an infamous superstition claiming that no monarch of the city of Korvosa shall ever die of old age or produce an heir. Whether or not there is any truth to the legend of the curse, Korvosa's current king is but the latest victim to succumb to this foul legacy. Now, the metropolis teeters on the edge of anarchy, and it falls to a band of new heroes to save Korvosa from the greatest threat it has ever known! This softcover compilation presents the fan-favorite campaign for use with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game First Edition, including new and revised content and nearly 500 pages packed with mayhem, excitement, and adventure!
The Curse of the Crimson Throne Pocket Edition contains:
All six chapters of the original Adventure Path, expanded and updated for use with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game First Edition.
An in-depth gazetteer of the city of Korvosa as it exists under the rule of its new queen.
An array of new rules options for characters, ranging from campaign traits to spells to magic items.
An expansive appendix with statistics, descriptions, backgrounds, and rules support for the 12 most important NPCs in the campaign.

That's helpful. I have the original AP issues but never played them and the original hardcover is so expensive in the secondary market. Plus, Amazon recently notified me that my preorder of this pocket edition still has an unknown delivery time, so I guess I was just checking if anyone had actually gotten a copy and will now probably order direct from Paizo. Glad to hear the maps are readable at this small print size! Thanks.
Amazon get their stock via Diamond, and Diamond had shutdown completely during the lockdown and is only now slowly getting back to business. That is why Amazon cannot predict your delivery time.
Imagine my surprise when the 22nd. session wasn´t the finale of book 4 (where 2 pc´s were killed, but swiftly brought back with raise dead.
I forgot that the collected Edition has added a whole chapter to book 4 named "Mantis & Maiden".
The 4th encounter in a row was going against us and only a getaway spell safed us from a tpk.
Hopefully we´ll wrap up chapter 4 on the upcoming friday, otherwise this chapter will be taking longer than book one (7 sessions).
I really hope they do these pocket editions as a means of re-releasing old adventure paths. I mean I would like it more if they converted and added/changed some things to them but I would be perfectly content with just a pocket edition of something like Legacy of Fire. I like the compilation feel to it more than the individual booklets but that might just be me.
They’re not going to just do all the APs as pocket editions just as a way to resell it, if they’ll do anymore compilations it’ll be just like they’ve done for all the others, a complete overhaul and now for P2.

It would be nice to see them all redone for P2, but I know that's not going to happen.
You should be able to purchase the pocket edition and then just the PDF by itself. I don't believe there is anyway to buy them as a bundle at a lower price.
