Wicht is correct. Erik Mona indicated it will be pretty much their version of both books combined, tailored for Pathfinder much the way that the PHB was for Greyhawk...
There is an excellent chance for future monster books, but those will be handled seperately.

Chance? Id say a guarantee.
If the Pathfinder RPG needs to be made to replace the out of print PHB and DMG...
I guess we'd need a Pathfinder Monster book with stats for all the SRD monsters to replace the MM.
I'm REALLY looking foward to that one just for all the art and getting to see how the re-imagined monsters look. :)
Chance? Id say a guarantee.

I speak in disclaimers sometimes.
Probably a terrible habit. Maybe.

The reason I ask is that I really would like to have one source to reference than multiple sources.
I agree!
Having the new Pathfinder Handbook be a fusion of the PHB & DMG would definitely be more ideal, especially with all the streamlining going on in gaming these days... just seems to make sense to me!In regards to a future Pathfinder Monster Manual... well, we'll deal with that issue later! :P

This, may or may not, be the perhaps the most pleasurable thing I have read in the last hour or so, give or take fifty-three minutes!
