Great stuff! And it really paints a great picture of Otari.
I hope people really dig Otari. The overview presented here is very similar to that presented in the Pathfinder Beginner Box. There's a much more detailed gazetteer provided in Ruins of Gauntlight, but that one provides a lot of supplemental information for the GM to help build connections between the party and the town.

I really hope there are plans for a comprehensive Otari setting resource book.
When I first started playing Pathfinder, one of my biggest problems was finding all the little bits about Sandpoint that were scattered in blog posts, Guide to Varisia, adventure paths, etc.
It would be lovely if we could get the Otari guidebook at the beginning of PF2, and not wait until basically the last thing published as happened with Sandpoint.

Never say never, but print products are planned years in advance. The Pathfinder Wiki is one resource, Archives of Nethys is another, and we aspire to more "lore" landing pages on this site. I could see a page on "All Things Starstone Isles" including relevant blogs and products. And I dream of product bundles sold here too, not to mention Adventure Path bundles. All thanks to our Director of Brand Strategy. So back to work for me. :)
Thanks for your input. Adventures Ahead!

While a book about a single tiny town with ~1000 people in it is not something that interests me at all, I imagine there’ll be at least a section of a chapter on “nearby settlements” in the Absalom book, assuming it’s still going to come out. Also, I believe all of the little bits of info on otari will be collected in the larger gazeteer in ruins of gauntlight

If you could make that happen, that would be brilliant!
Also, this is a very far-fetched idea probably, but what would be the odds of making a bestiary filled completely with AP monsters? I feel like I'm not the only one who doesn't always find interest in the stories themselves, but the monsters and their designs are very fascinating and could be useful in our games. However, spending $150+ on all 6 books in a single line just for the monsters wouldn't be very financially advisable for many, so having a bestiary that acts as a compilation volume for all of these creatures would be nice (in my own humble opinion).
I wouldn't expect a book like this to come out until there were enough new monsters to actually warrant one, but if it's something that seems profitable enough and worth the time and effort to make it, I would definitely buy one in the future!
