I do not play PF2 so, therefore, I do not get any of the 2nd Edition APs.
In a thread I posted a few days ago, the second post suggested I take a look at the Curtain Call AP for some information that might shed some light on my question in the OP of that thread.
Since I don't get the 2E APs, I'd rather not spend close to $100 for three AP books if the information Saedar is referring to can be found in just one of them.
Can anyone please let me know which book the information is in so I only have to get the book in which I'm interested?
Thanks.

Curtain Call is not built to be a mythic Adventure Path, nor does it contain any mythic options for PCs, but does include events and themes that were introduced in War of Immortals, and it does include events and developments that are pretty significant.

Of course, the person who reads the adventure as a reader rather than just playing the adventure as a player gets to learn all this stuff without making skill checks!
Since at the time this adventure was being written and developed the Mythic Rules for 2nd edition were still being worked on and were not in a final shape, we did not include any Mythic content in the adventure, despite the fact that the story itself could have very much been one that leans into mythic tropes. Just... the timing wasn't right.

Thanks once again, James!
I’ll buy that third book post haste!

** spoiler omitted **WRT the last paragraph, if I recall correctly, the same was true for Reign of Winter?
Nope. Reign of Winter was, arguably, the most specifically and perfectly timed Adventure Path in 1st edition, considering the fact that it was the only 1E Adventure Path that had to happen in a specific year.

Upon checking, it appears Rasputin Must Die!'s writer said something similar.

Ah, yup. But in hindsight, I quantify this as a lucky break, since I don't think making Reign of Winter a mythic Adventure Path would have been supportive of my long term mental health. Wrath of the Righteous is more than capable of filling that role in my memories! :-P
I think given how rapidly the power level ramps in 1e Mythic, a lot of Reign of Winter books 5 and 6 would have needed to be extensively rewritten to accommodate mythic, unless we did something like "mythic tiers accumulate much slower" so the PCs were like Mythic Tier 2 at the end, which might not have been worth implementing a whole subsystem. Like considering what the WotR party did to Baphomet and Deskari, I would have felt bad for Elvanna facing off against something like that.
