This is my favorite book released recently. Great lore sections on magic, lots of interesting spells and items. Both the Magus and the Summoner are great new classes that cover territory not previously explored.

Meanwhile, any expectations of a remaster of this one like with Guns and Gears? Although I can imagine any necessary tinkering with Eidolons would take some time.
Mostly interested for Magi, mind. Maybe we can get a dual-wielding-focused hybrid study in the process. >>;
Nothing announced, and it's not out of print, so unless the number remaining are very small, will probbaly not happen very soon.

My guess would be that we may get a Remastered Magus, Summoner, and Psychic in the book where the Necromancer and Runesmith are printed, if at all.
Honestly, My own personal option is that Dark Archives will get the Guns & Gears remaster reprint, but the Secrets of Magic material that hasn't gotten the remaster yet will most likely be in the upcoming, "Impossible Magic" book. (Guessing the name there). It would most likely contain the remastered Magus & Summoner along with the new Necromancer & Runesmith.
