TLG: As I understand, this product had a very low print run. Will there be a re-print?
Not likely. Nothing from NG has been re-printed yet. I would suspect it would be the same regardless if the NG book came out under the S&SS or the TLG imprints.
 


reprint

As for reprints on The Lost City of Barakus. The short answer "no."

The long answer is a little different. The second printing of Gary Gygax's World Builder is at the printer right now, but it went only after quite a bit time after it was sold out. There are several reasons for this, but one of the primary reasons is that "sold out" at the publisher level, may not mean "sold out" at the retailer level. Just because I don't have any, doesn't necessarily mean you can't get them. In the World Builder's case we set the whole subject aside and let it be until one of the large distributors called us and asked when it was coming out as they had a bit of demand for it. We listened at it is being reprinted.

As for Barakus, right now it is our second best restocking item (next only to Gary Gygax's Book of Names). I don't know how long we'll have it in stock. But until the conditions merit a reprint, it won't be considered. And even then Bill and Clark have to give it the thumbs up as we have to weigh the cost/amount of sales on a 'new' product vrs. cost/amount of sales on a reprint.

So, if you want the book, I'd get it! ;)
