There are four free preview PDFs on the project page, an extensive tumblr bursting with concept artwork and information about the world (including new races, new classes, and sample NPC builds) so you can see the quality of content and artwork coming your way!
Explore the war torn realms of Grethadnis as the Kind Folk experience a renaissance of technology, adventure in the fantastical realms of Urethiel's high fantasy and martial arts, be a monstrous PC on the dieselpunk continent of Trectoyri, or explore the vast vohoro of the Wild West-themed Forever Dark, the subterranean world that links these unique settings-within-the-setting together!
But GMs can use this book in any world! The second part of the Veranthea Codex has a host of player options, and the final section is a collection of NPC statblocks (for alchemists, oracles, and all the other base classes in the Advanced Player's Guide, Ultimate Combat, and Ultimate Magic) that you can use in ANY Pathfinder game!
Veteran RPG industry artist Larry Dixon is writing the foreword and illustrating a character written by NY Times bestseller Mercedes Lackey, with autographed collector art prints available at the $99 level, but anyone that backs at $25 or above gets a voucher for an at-cost (ink, paper, glue, and postage) softcover of the Veranthea Codex!

This one's very close to funding and what I've seen so far is rather cool - and most of all: unique. As in "Can't mention another setting that is like this unique. While still being plug and play. I'd love to see this book happen and the dead tree-buy-in is very low...so consider this a bump and an endorsement! I'm hoping very much this funds!
1 - Larry Dixon, Mercedes Lackey, and Jacob Blackmon are teaming up to write another new race for the Veranthea Codex: gryphons!
2 - The tumblr keeps on updating and there's one more to tell you about tomorrow, but for today I've got a preview of the MONSTROUS PCs section of the book. If you're looking at Trectoyri and wondering how to GM a game for a party with a troll, otyugh, and demon, it is definitely something you should give a read. :D
