Carcosa Weird Science-Fantasy Horror Setting. 288 A5 size hardcover. Full description of what it is here, PDF preview of actual book contents here.
The PDF version (which comes free with a print order) is an absolute state-of-the-art example of PDF technology, with extensive links, layers, and bookmarking. Click around on the maps.
Isle of the Unknown Island hexcrawl full of the strange and unusual, suitable for any fantasy campaign. 128 page A5 size hardcover. Full description of what it is here, PDF preview of actual book contents here.
The PDF version (which comes with a print order) isn't quite state-of-the-art with the interior cross-linking as Carcosa, is fully bookmarked and layered.
Extras Both Isle and Carcosa have optional add-ons. 250 of these are available for each book. Each book comes with an A4 sized map printed on canvas-like material and a double-sided full color A3 poster (both sides of the individual posters are shown in the pics here). Extras for each book are 5€ each. They are added by default, so toggle it to "No" if you don't want them. But you want them.
Discount Offer 1 Pembrooktonshire Gardening Society members get 2€ off the print versions of Carcosa and Isle of the Unknown as long as there are extras left for each book. When the extras run out, the discount is reduced to 1€ per book (the same discount Gardening Society members get on all print products in the LotFP store).

09.11.2011: Carcosa and Isle of the Unknown are at the Printer
Carcosa and Isle of the Unknown are at the printer.
Barring any shenanigans, they will arrive sometime the first week of December and go on sale then. Watch this space, or the LotFP blog, or however you keep track of LotFP news, for further updates.
30.10.2011: Preparing for Carcosa and Isle of the Unknown
Now that the Grindhouse sale is over, we're in "home stretch" mode for both Carcosa and Isle of the Unknown.
These go to the printer November 7, and we expect to have them on sale right at the start of December.
15.07.2011: Summer News
The LotFP train storms onward!
RopeCon is July 29-31 in Espoo, and LotFP will again have a table stacked with OSR books. LotFP will also be participating in panels featuring, among others, Frank Mentzer and Erik Mona.
Geoffrey McKinney's Carcosa and Isle of the Unknown are in production now (Carcosa is in layout!), but the Curse of the Small Publisher is that nothing is ever done when it's expected to be done. They're coming, don't worry.
LotFP has been featured on a number of podcasts lately, including The Game's the Thing, All Games Considered, Yellow Menace, RPG Circus, and Gamer's Haven!
LotFP has also been featured on SomethingAwful's WTF D&D? column, and there's a big review and interview on Suvudu!
There's some third-party LotFP products out there. LotFP isn't involved in their production, but whether that makes them better or worse or about equal is up to you to decide. Postmortem Studios' Kiss of the Frog God in print and PDF, Jack Shear (with Jeremy Duncan) has created the Flavors of Fear document.
I know this space isn't updated very much, but the latest news and links is always up-to-date over at the blog and Facebook page.
01.05.2011: May News
Vornheim and the Grindhouse Edition are on sale and continue to do well. The PDF editions go on sale today.
We already carry some Rogue Games products, and as of May 2 we will carry most of the Frog God Games' line of Swords & Wizardry products. We have a huge pallet of stuff on its way from the US with product from many other OSR publishers as well.
Work is underway on Exquisite Corpses, Carcosa, Isle of the Unknown, and a couple more things. Look for these to come out over the next six months...
