AD&D Oriental adventures is available used from Amazon.com.  Just go to their main page and search in the "books" section for Gary Gygax Oriental Adventures and it should come up.

It's also available as a .pdf download from svgames.

The price for the used hardcopy and the .pdf is almost the same.  ~$5.00 for both.

I think www.rpgnow.com also has it so you can check that as well. And the price is about the same as listed above. :)

I got that old OA hardcover joint.  Gygax wrote it right?  I also have the Kara-Tur boxed set as well as every module written for the OA setting.

Those were LONG, detailed and COMPLEX adventures if I remember correctly.  But they were really, really REALLY cool.  "Blood of the Yakuza" and things of that nature.  Hot stuff.

Gary gets the byline, but the text is largely by David Cook and Francois Froideval.

My understanding is that it was almost solely Cook, and that most of Foideval's stuff was left on the cutting room floor, so to speak.

That's how I understood it, too:  Froideval knew his concept material, and Cook knew what he wanted for the game, so it ended up being Cook milking Froideval.

Right about now I am sitting on top of a gorgeous 3e OA accessory book that is aching to be used!

Sounds to me like you're using a 3e supplement to it's maximum efficiency...
