[Samardan Press] Flynn's Guide to Magic in Traveller!

Thanks for your support, guys. I greatly appreciate the informal reviews on the Guide. This lets me know what you like and that, in turn, helps me to become a better writer. 
A fantasy bestiary, huh? It wouldn't be that hard for me to put together something, I'm sure. It would just take time, is all. Let me get through the next product or two in the pipeline, and I'll see what I can do about putting one together.
If I did it, it would have a section on Terran animals, and then sections containing a lot of the common fantasy tropes broken down by creature type and sorted by creature name. Based on all the creatures that are out there in the OGL for d20, it would not be hard to come up with a book of several hundred creatures or more, depending on how long I spent putting the bestiary together. Artwork would be my biggest issue, but I'll come up with something.
That is, of course, unless someone beats me to it, and that's cool with me. That's the power of the OGL.
With Regards,
Flynn

Sounds great Flynn.
For me, decent 'sketches' just to convey what the author was picturing in their head when they described the creature would be great. If you go for higher quality than that B&W is just fine, that's one of the things that make OAD&D and HM 4th so near and dear to me.

Flynn,
You did a great job on the book, the systems work well. I would love to see another volumn maybe on Occult, Paranormal, and other related Magic trappings flushed out to add onto your system. Maybe some more skills and spells as well too. Really dig into the whole art of magic and all the fluff that ,ost systems kinda gloss over. Flushing it out for your systems would only add a whole other element to your work that other gaming resources and systems would never touch on making yours #1 to all the others.

If I can get enough together to write up a follow-up to this, I will. I may only gather enough material to create a small PDF, though. We'll see. I imagine there's stuff I can do with magical Traditions, as well as the Occult and Paranormal here. Hmm... let me ponder this a while.
In the meantime, if you have any special requests, please feel free to post them here. I'll definitely consider it, and if I find enough interest and inspiration, I'll put out a follow-up volume.
Hope This Helps,
Flynn
