We've had some pretty foul weather in the UK the last couple of weeks (more snow than we know how to handle followed by pretty heavy rain in some parts). Unfortunately, when my PF #18 and Clash of the Kingslayers arrived last Thursday they'd got pretty soggy as a result. Ironically, the envelope had then dried out trapping some of the moisture inside, but had otherwise done its usual good job of protecting both books from the dings and folds of international travel.
I've managed to dry both the AP issue and module out and, thankfully, none of the pages have stuck together, so they're both still readable...They're just all ripply. At the moment they're living under a huge big pile of other D&D books, to try and squish out the ripples. Has anyone else had any luck at flattening them out? Or got any suggestions as to how to do it. I was considering ironing them, but don't want to risk making them unreadable.
Cheers,

Once the book is thoroughy dry, use an iron at low heat but put parchment paper (you can get it by the aluminum foil at the grocery store) between the iron and the page. This should preotect your pages, while allowing you to flatten them.

Crmanriq has a pretty good suggestion. If it doesn't work, though, I have set you to get replacement copies in your next subscription shipment. If you manage to get your books back into a useful condition and don't need the replacements, let me know and I'll cancel them. Otherwise, fresh copies will be coming next month. :)
thanks,

Excellent advice! I figured I'd probably need something between the pages, but wasn't sure what to use. Thanks very much.
And cheers to cos also. That's really generous, considering Paizo can't help the weather. I'll give it a try over the weekend and let you know.

Hey cos,
I gave it a try over the weekend on both books and it worked a treat on Clash of the Kingslayers, so I don't need a replacement for that one. I think PF #18 took the brunt of the damage, maybe the higher page count trapped more water? Anyway, I just can't get the covers to unwarp and the whole volume is quite badly curved and rippled, so I'd really appreciate the replacement for that one.
Many thanks,
U
