I can see a few. However, I think Outsiders should be the absolute last book done. The ground has already been covered between Book of Vile Darkness, Book of Exalted Deeds, Manual of the Planes and the Planar Handbook. There's room to expand, but it's not needed right now.

Outsiders! We need a Demonomicon! No, the Book of Vile Darkness doesn't count.

Demiurge out.
Book of Fiends. For sure. Followed by elementals. Fey are dead last in my book. I'd rather see ANIMALS than fey!
 

I voted for Outsiders, but that's because I want my tanar'ri/baatezu/yugoloths. Glyfair brings up a good point, but I think that none of those books really gave the fiends coverage they deserve (which is Faces of Evil: The Fiends style).
 

I said Constructs, but I could also go with Fey, Elementals, Giants, or Magical Beasts. I like the robot-flavored constructs, though. :D
 

Constructs (golems and the like, mebbe inevitables), but not 'forged (let eberron books cover eberron stuff)
Though a Faces of Evil style book on baatezu or tanar'ri would be cool too. A book on gith would be neat.
 




Personally, I'd like a book on constructs. As I like to have the presence of encounters in dungeons make sense, I use a lot of undead and constructs as guardians in tombs (I have trouble with groups of intelligent monsters living for years in someone's tomb without ever having found the secret doors or treasures of the place).

On undead there is plenty of stuff (what with my old ravenloft collection, the Libris Mortis etc.), but on constructs there is very little AFAIK....
