It Came From The Stars Campaign Guide
Most of my gaming time is devoted to the 4E campaign I run. I still participate in some 3.5 discussions and even joined a 3.5 play-by-post recently. I never jumped onto Pathfinder. As a long time Spelljammer fan, the kickstarter for It Came From The Stars Campaign Guide supplement caught my attention. Despite not expecting to use the book directly since it is a Pathfinder supplement, I joined the kickstarter.
I'm still making my way through the full book. The hardcopy is over one hundred twenty pages. While the pdf is over one hundred thirty. The difference is due to the change in formating. It makes the pdf easier to read on a widescreen which is nice. About a quarter of the book is player material. The majority of the gamemaster material is taken up by the three adventures.

Races of the Shroud: Apelords
As a fan of Planet of the Apes, Gorilla Grodd, and Grommam, I've always like ape-men. The Apelord by One Bad Egg intrigued me as soon as I saw it on drivethrurpg. Since I'm currently running 4E and not playing, I put off purchasing it for a long time. One Bad Egg no longer exists but it's products are still available from Highmoon Games.
Races of the Shroud: Apelord describes a new race for players. It includes several new feats to enhance the Apelord. Additionally it provides some Apelord monsters for the DM to throw at players. Finally it closes with several adventure ideas to use the race.

Using Kid's Colouring Book o Critters - Celebrity Edition
Sometimes gaming books languish in your collection without being used. You may not have time to read the information to use them. Or maybe your campaign couldn't incorporate the material at that point in the story. Here we have a suggestion on how to incorporate the Kid's Colouring Book o Critters. The book is unusual as it is designed to be both a supplement and a coloring book. It was created by two kids, age 6 and 10. The monsters found within are rather unusual.

She has heard of your quest to discover the cause of blight affecting your hometown. Her people also suffer from failed crops. She wishes to join your search.
After the introduction of the GSL and the ending of the d20 system license various products became unavailable. Other material while still available is left abandoned with the original company gone or simply focused on other material. Endangered Races takes open game content and expands upon the original creation. The first in the series is the Quasta. Originally designed for a high technology setting, some modifications are needed to place the race in more traditional fantasy setting.
