WHAT'S NEW?
Lester Dent's Zeppelin Tales Now Available!
Lester Dent penned many pulp adventures before he created Doc Savage in 1933 under the house name Kenneth Robeson. Lester Dent's Zeppelin Tales collects five airship-themed stories published from 1930 to 1932, and includes material restored from Dent's original manuscripts!
Lester Dent's Zeppelin Tales is nearly 100,000 words of pulpy goodness, and is available now as a PDF from e23. It should be available from most online booksellers shortly (it is currently listed with BarnesAndNoble.com and Amazon.co.uk), and you can special order it from your local bookshop: just tell them it is available from Ingram or Baker & Taylor in the US or Blackwell's or Bertram's in the UK.
Old news is still available on the News Page.

City Description Guide for Space: 1889
by Mark Clark
The following is an index to descriptions of cities mentioned in Space: 1889 source material. The index includes all sourcebooks published by GDW, Challenge Magazine (also published by GDW), the adventure module Liftwood Conspiracy published by 3W, Transactions of the Royal Martian Geographical Society (TRMGS) published by Heliograph, Inc., and The Familiar magazine. TRMGS material is indexed using page numbers from the Heliograph reprints, not the original fanzine.
Please note that the extent of description varies a great deal, depending on the particular source. Some city descriptions include maps, detailed descriptions of locations, and a run-down of the political and economic situation. Others are barely more than a paragraph, giving only very general information. I have also included references to adventures set in cities, if those adventures contain any city description material at all.
For those interested in writing for TRMGS, I might note that no city descriptions exist for the Oenotrian Empire, the Boreosyrtis League, the Tossian Empire, or the Belgian Coprates. The German trade stations in Western Dioscuria on Mars and all of the colonies on Venus other than the German one are also undetailed. So get to it!
