Nobody once said I was going to stop doing pdfs. I'd be crazy to do that. Sales are fabulous and (as I have said here and elsewhere) I believe that there is an exclusive market for each format (my sales figures indicate that one type of sale does not cannibalize the other to any great extent).
This is one product that we're talking about. Around 224 pages, hardcover. Maybe even some color artwork. Really prestige sort of product.
The feedback I got from Banewarrens is that it is just too big to be a pdf--too big to print out, specifically. This product is almost twice as big.
Maybe we'll work something out so that parts of this new product are available as multiple pdfs or something. I don't know. We'll work something out, though (I know that there are plenty of you without access to a game store or who really prefer pdfs).
Our other upcoming books--Book of Eldritch Might 3, Book of Hallowed Might, Skreyn's Register, Mindscapes, etc.--you'll see them all in pdf and print form. No question.
