Can you please tell me if the book will contain something useful for the players? (heritages, bloodlines, archetypes or something similar)I like to think of the Rulebooks as 80% rules / 20% lore and the Lost Omens books as 80% lore / 20% rules. That said, players will find PACTBOUND INITIATE, a new archetype, Spear of the Destroyer’s Flame, and item, MOSQUITO WITCH (RARE WITCH PATRON), and much more. As a GM I would want to control access to the content to be honest.
I was nearly going to pass on this book, but Pactbound initiate and Mosquito Witch have me very interested.
Pactbound Initiate?
Pactbound Initiate?
Pactbound Initiate?Refers to this post.

It is connected to Ainamuuren and the saumen kar. "You befriended one of the last saumen kar and were infused with a fraction of their power, granting you the potential to become a guardian of their ancient pact."

I am really happy for young linnorms.

Back cover:
Release the Beasts!
For every great hero found on Golarion, there lurks an even greater monster. Some of these creatures have earned their notoriety from local folk tales and ancient epics. Others built their reputations on the backs of victims, performing acts so horrifying they defy embellishment.
Monsters of Myth presents 20 monsters from all over Golarion. Each entry includes lore on the creature’s place in the world, statistics to use it as an adversary, guidance for including the monster at any level of play, and rewards for heroes who face off with such a legendary adversary!

Info on the Sandpoint Devil?
Yes. There is a common Sandpoint child rhyme, and the sections are THE DEVIL’S DISCIPLES, IN YOUR CAMPAIGNS (at multiple levels), THE SPECTRAL DEVIL (with stats), and THE DEVIL’S ORIGIN (with a new ritual.)

I gotta say, I really like the section-based spoiler format, Aaron. The way you're doing it here and in the Absalom thread is fun to me. Hints! Making the gears turn!

Is there a list of monsters in the book, or is that still under wraps?

Kaiju you say?
Wow! This offering keeps looking better and better. I can't wait to get my grubby hands on it.
Cuetzmonquali is from Arcadia, I assume - can we hear anything about it?

Yes, there is "an excerpt from Arazni’s research journal from her time in Jolizpan," and sections on THE ARMY OF FIRE, ON SAHKILS AND SOULS, IN YOUR CAMPAIGNS (Low-, Mid-, and High-Level, Campaigns), THE BURNING DRAGON (with stats and a level 20 item), and art of course.

Excited to see, thank you!

Thanks Aaron for what you've been sharing! I just have to know - is there anything you can share about Spring-Heeled Jack?
Well, there are a series of detective case files, campaign guides, IMPISH CRUELTY, JACK’S ITEMS, and actually... even the section headings give away the biggest secret, so I'll stop there.

Don't mind me. Just adding more fuel to the fire of "Arcadia, please!" over here.
What's your favorite piece of art? can you describe it?

What kind of monster of Cuetzmonquali? I don't need a lot of description, but knowing if it's a big worm or something would be nice.

I'm a big fan of the opening piece for Kuworsys. It looks like something you would find carved into a wall of an ancient tomb. It's a neat illustration that is definitely made really weird by Kuworsys's inclusion.

Which is a type of worm!
I wouldn't want to say that to his face, would I?

Melfesh Monster was pretty much pathfinde Flatwoods Monster right? :O
I assume kaiju are going to be hazards and not actually monsters, right? I recall this from an AP of some kind that I obviously never bought, lol.

All the stats are hazards, yes. an enhancement to the summon kaiju spell.
Does the linnorm style feats make their return in this book?
That would be great!!
Did this book get pushed back, the PDF release is gone?
Probably had to do with the bug concerning the Black Friday Sale that was letting people purchase the PDF now.
Ah!
