I'm still curious about any details on how the new book came about and whether Peter helped or not. R Blake Stevens passed in April 2018. James Edmiston has written a tribute to Stevens dated April 2019 in the front part of the new book where he gives Stevens and The Collector Grade Publications books praise. Then he thanks Peter Laidler for his invitation to "join in the update". In his separate forward (which I just reread) also dated April 2019, Edmiston does mention the passing of David Howroyd, his important role in TGoD, and the fact that "we" have purchased the rights to TGoD. So who is we?
