Recently announced product for the third trimester, with a strong Paizo presence, once more!
This time Paizo contributors Nicholas Logue and Amber Scott (working with Keith Baker and Scott Fitzgerald Grey) gratify us with...
Dragons of Eberron
Dragons of Eberron delves into the mysterious Draconic Prophecy and various draconic organizations. It [u]introduces the continent of Argonnessen[/u], homeland of the dragons, and describes various adventure sites and other places of interest that have never before been presented. The remainder of the book explores dragons on the continents of Khorvaire, Sarlona, and Xen'drik and provides several ready-to-play dragons, complete with stat blocks, lairs, encounters, and adventure hooks.

The Paizo school is hogging the floor... ;-)
And it's nice to see one more Eberron book with Keith's name on the cover.

So true! This is my third Eberron book and my first where I actually got to collaborate with Keith! He's awesome! It helped the writing process go sooo much smoother with the Grandmaster of Eberrony Goodness himself on hand.
I had a blast working on this book! It's chocked full of coolness!
Oh no! I didn't mean my stuff per se! The outline Keith gave us to work from was just really really awesome. I hope I did it justice!

Out of curiosity, how involved is KB in these books that have his name on?
Really involved. He wrote the outline for Dragons (conferring with WotC as he went) and he is really cool about getting together for online chats about the material and answers any and all email questions we other authors have. He also tackles an equal portion of the book.
I'm surprised this book wasn't named "Secrets of Argonessen," to fit with the Xen'drik and Sarlona books.
The longest chapter of the book is a condensed "SoA." But there is a lot more to the book as well.
I'm looking forward to it nonetheless.
Oooh, I didn't even know this was announced. Yeah, it was totally rockin' to work with Keith again, and to work with Scott and Nick for the first time.

Ditto!!! Good times Amber!!!
Even as a non-Eberron player, I'll still be very interested in both Dragons of Eberron and Forge of war - I'm sure they'll have plenty of ideas to... um, adapt.
Most of the material is definately yoinkable! The introductions to each chapter aside (these are steeped in Eberronyness), the rest of the book (while very very Eberronerific) is chalked full of fun goodness that is totally useful to any DM who wants to put dragons centerstage in their next campaign. This ain't me tootin my horn by the way, the outline of the book Keith made it easy to create cool cool stuff that would be useful to most DMs (in my opinion at least).
My last secret spoiler before WotC has me whacked:
The book if fluff-a-licous, with some cool crunchy adversaries...but the fluff is fun-good-fluff that could easily be adapted to any dragon rich campaign.
Will there be more on the Serens in this lovely book? Some crunchy stuff like feats, spells and perhaps a prestige class?
Crud. Having to wait until October = sad.
This is one I have been hoping excitedly for.
Cool to hear that some of our Paizo-published authors are in this!
