I throw my enormous community weight behind Travel Cakes, as it is a great title for your latrine library.

I think you're getting confused with urinal cakes.

I think that's my favorite so far.

Travel Cakes is good, but lacks the seriousness.  Maybe if the book had a picture of a skeletal hand half buried in sand holding a couple cakes.

My suggestions

A Sea of Eternal Dust

Zalanthas: The Relentless Rays of Suk Krath

Zalanthas: Under Suk-Krath's Light

I don't think Armageddon should be used in the title.  Someone who doesn't play isn't going to think fantasy anything.  A number of things like movies, Christanity and Bruce Willis are going to come to mind.  I like using Zalanthas though.

Who was talking on the think. thingy? also, I think the book should be a story which slowly explains Arm. I don't think people would read that sorta thing. Although interesting, lacks entertainment for non armers, which, is supposedly, our goal.

I like Zalanthas: Murder, Corruption, Betrayal  (Medena), going to go with that for this one.

These take about a week of intensive or three months lackadaisical work to put together, heh, but they're kinda fun, so I might try to put one out every 4-6 months.  Here are other possibilities, some of which incorporate suggestions from the thread:

Clan Books
   Anyali (Zalanthas: Agvat Sunrise (JRB))
   Atrium (Zalanthas: The Silver Ginka)
   Black Moon & Other Raiders (Zalanthas: The Copper-skinned Dwarf)
   Borsail (Zalanthas: The Slaver's Whip)
   Conclave (Zalanthas: The Magicker's Hand)
   Fale (Zalanthas: Amethyst and Emerald)
   Guild (Zalanthas: Death in the Shadows)
   Haruch Kemad (Zalanthas: Blood in the Alleyways)
   Kadius (Zalanthas: ???)
   Kohmar (Zalanthas: Fall of a Merchant House)
   Kurac (Zalanthas: The Bloody Fist)
   Oash (Zalanthas: Blood and Magic)
   Salarr (Zalanthas: Sand and Bones)
   Tan Muark (Zalanthas: Tyn Dashra)
   Tor (Zalanthas: The Bones of War)
   T'zai Byn (Zalanthas: Three Sleeve Knots)

Assorted Desert Elves (Zalanthas: Red Sands (Ktavialt))
Halflings (Zalanthas: Life in the Grey Forest)
Nonhumans (Zalanthas: Weird Blood)
   (Galith, Gith, Mantis, Ghaati, Thornwalkers, were-tembo)

Ghost Stories of Zalanthas (Zalanthas: Ghost Stories)

Crafting (Zalanthas: Travel Cakes (Seeker))
Magick (Zalanthas: The Demon's Puzzlebox)

Logs (Zalanthas: Death, Sand, and Text: (Ender))

OOC History (Armageddon: A Roleplaying MUD (Manhattan)

Stories (Zalanthas: Tales (John, Tamarin))
Bards (Zalanthas: Poets' Circle)
Allanak (Byn Latrines, Sand, and Jail: A Tourist's Guide to Allanak (jhunter))
Tuluk (Old and New Conjoined: A Tourist's Guide to Tuluk)
Luirs (Spice and Mantis: A Tourist's Guide to Luirs)
Tablelands  (Zalanthas: Red Sky (Angela Christine))
Mal Krian (Zalanthas: The Slaves' City)
The Red Desert (Zalanthas: The Sun's a Thief (Falconer))
Red Storm (The Sea of Eternal Dust: A Tourist's Guide to Red Storm (Ender))
Personalities (Zalanthas: Brief Lives)
Story of the Northern War (Zalanthas: The Sound of the Horn)

Early Days History (Shade and Water: Early History of Zalanthas (flurry, Ender))

That's 37 books by my count, which would end up being 10 years worth of work if released every three months and about 18 years if released every 6 months.  Heh.  Well, we'll see how this one sells and whether or not it's worthwhile. ;)  It would be cool to have a larger advertising budget and this might help us get there.
