"Go to the sign of Marvel's Axe, a dubious inn on the edge of the Thieves Quarter, in the City of Greyhawk, and look to your own wrist. If you perceive a bracelet and dangling dice, watch for the next throw in the war between Law and Chaos and be prepared to follow the compelling geas." -Signal

Citybook V - Sideshow
The most non standard offering in the Citybook line is most likely one of the better offerings. It won't work for every fantasy setting to every fantasy city but it offers great material to those that it will work in. I only have this one and the one from yesterday in my inventory (scanned) and I know I have the first one as well. Adding these to the blog has reminded me I need to make a point of finishing out the collection of these.
From the cover:
19 decidedly nonhuman establishments and over 50 fully-developed non-player personalities, with scenario suggestions for use with any role-playing system.
If your adventures are gridlocked into the usual, lead them down the streets of Sideshow, the City's decidedly different exotics quarter - a haven for some of the strangest places of business that any world has to offer.
