Which is, I suspect, fair enough. HQ2 is not a Glorantha book, and is not intended to be one, either. It's intended market is those who are looking for new rules, regardless of what setting they happen to be playing in. So, if you don't need new rules, I wouldn't suggest buying it - you'll only be disappointed.

The Pavis book will, I gather, include a lot of new material, so it's not introductory in the sense of simply re-hashing old ground. Cults of Sartar I'm less clear about - if you already own and like Thunder Rebels/Storm Tribe, and don't plan on getting HQ2, there may not be much reason to buy it.

Oh, I think you are, on that front. Quite what has happened to the Aldryami book, and to Distant Shores, I have no way of knowing. But the Pavis book will contain new material, and seems to be a high priority. Plus, Heroes of Malkion is getting ever closer to publication, and is probably the next book out.
