I finished The Anubis Murders by Gary Gygax (published as part of Paizo’ Planet Stories) today. A fun little romp. I feel tempted to buy all the books they’ll be publishing in this series. However, I fear that it is not too interesting for people that don’t play D&D. Sword & Sorcery stuff is all about the action.
The Anubis Murders by Gary Gygax
And on that subject... I got the following second hand books via Amazon Marketpace and Alibris:
Lords of Madness by Richard Baker, James Jacobs, Steve Winter
Manual of the Planes by Jeff Grubb, Bruce R. Cordell, David Noonan
Planar Handbook by Bruce R. Cordell and Gwendolyn F.M. Kestrel
Do you note a pattern? :D

Since you seem to be a planes junkie, I recommend Beyond Countless Doorways from Malhavoc Press. Some of the people that worked on Planescape also worked on this book, and it provides an interesting alternative to the standard Great Wheel cosmology. Though if you are looking for more Great Wheel stuff, this book isn’t so useful. I myself am a big fan of orrery-style cosmologies, a la Eberron.

Hm, after reading some reviews ¹² this seems to be just my kind of book. In fact, I ordered it from Amazon Marketplace just now. Thanks for the recommendation. I’m flexible when it comes to cosmology. The important part is that angels and demons, the heavens and hell are all places to travel to. 😄
