The Faerie Ring: Along the Twisting Way Campaign Guide for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game is now available in PDF. Nail down the furniture, and hide the children... the fey are coming! If you've always wanted a "Feynomicon," here's your chance.
(Print and 5E versions and Player's Guide coming soon.)
Originally, I had no intention of responding to your query, let alone honoring your request. There is certainly little love between the fey—my brethren—and humanity. And, really, what would it accomplish?
Needless to say, I’ve had a change of heart. I have come to appreciate that sharing my knowledge and insight with you might go far. Not in the useless notion that you harbor of bringing our peoples together, but in instilling the proper respect—and perhaps even a little fear—for us. Humanity knows so very little, after all. I believe they need a glimpse of what is out there in order to better appreciate their own insignificance.
More selfishly, I am limited by the scourge of time—though perhaps not as much as you. The fey are so scattered and diverse that even being one of their own, I could not hope to catalogue them all in one lifetime. Together, perhaps we can learn a bit more about the fey.
So where to begin? Perhaps by laying the foundations . . .

Over 10 years ago, I started writing The Faerie Ring (RPG setting). It was just a thing I had to do. It scratched an itch of what I wanted in my own games, expanding on faeries, adding new oddities. That is, more crazy adventures to strange planes meeting weird creatures but still focused on the fey and built upon centuries of folklore (real or otherwise). But I knew so much less back then, and it took a long while to finish with many obstacles in the way. And it was dangerous to go it alone. So THANK YOU to all the many people that helped this book get here. The first book (for Pathfinder Roleplaying Game) is finished. The 5E version is coming soon as are more books, such as the Player's Gude.

Special Thanks to Michael Bauer (for those early talks) and BJ Hensley (for promoting the Kickstarter)
Tremendous Thanks to the support of our 315 Kickstarter backers for making this all possible. You’re wonderful.
The backer pdf for the campaign guide is great so far! I've been working my way through it. Job well done to all involved.
This is also well timed with the recent release of the Ironfang Invasion as there are quite a few fey encounters that can be embellished with this resource.
Will there be some PoD option from DriveThru or anything to lessen the EU shipping? Paying 70$ shipping for a 55$ book just isn't an option for me.
We're looking at our POD options and other shipping options and hope to be able to offer better shipping overseas. We should know by the time the print edition goes live.

Let me see what I can...
And just uploaded a bookmarked version of The Faerie Ring: Along the Twisting Way Campaign Guide! ;D
Indeed. Bookmarks make it sooooo much easier to hop around as needed. Many thanks, Mr. Gable (and unnamed InDesign/Acrobat person).

You're both very welcome. I had simply forgotten all about them in the rush. (And I am the "unnamed InDesign/Acrobat person.")
