Elemental Magic of Zakhara by Thomas Schluter - pay what you want. It seems to be a conversion of a lot of Zakharan magical lore. Haven't had much of a chance to dig, but it looks worth the time.

Anthanae's Divinations by Jeff & Dawn Ibach - 50 cents for a decent collection of divination spells. Some recreate concepts I was thinking about rewriting that my NPC Lady Jillian Doncastle of Neverwinter used.

The Incantatrix by David Adams is a different arcane tradition that seems ok

"Watch of Waterdeep" by Joseph Carriker is a detailed take on Waterdeep's City Watch in the pre-Spellplague era. It seems to pay good attention to canon, and I'll definitely be using it.
I've also bought his "Solve et Coagula: A Practical Guide to Alchemy", which I've only flipped through thus far, but it looks really detailed and interesting.

Looking forward to seeing what he produces in the future.

Yes he does. I referenced a lot of his stuff in my product. I like the people who do broader works so I don't have to refer to smaller articles... I also find that they've generally thought things more through.

Tried to search for Thomas Schulter and Schluter but had no success: for future people looking for his products, his name is Thomas Schlüter, and you're probably best off putting in the search term "Zakhara", looking for the product sleyvas mentioned above, and then clicking on his name.

Or, try this link: http://www.dmsguild.com/browse.php?author=Thomas%20Schl%C3%BCter

I hope you enjoy it. :) I included all Al-Qadim monsters I could find, omitting only a few (like the vizier's turban, which is more of a magic item than a monster). If you notice any missing monsters, please let me know.

I highly recommend Heroes of the Orient by Marc Altfuldisch: http://www.dmsguild.com/product/187283/Heroes-of-the-Orient-Players-and-DMs-Companion?src=hottest_filtered&filters=45469

Not specifically Forgotten Realms, but a great Oriental Adventures resource for 5e for those who enjoy playing in Kara-Tur, like myself. :)

The Zakharan Bestiary, along with a couple of other FR products, are now available in one of the Mega-Bundles. It's $10, and considering some of these products almost cost that alone, it's a pretty good deal. You'll get an additional discount if you already have some stuff included in the bundle. I haven't looked at any of the stuff yet, so I can't speak as to quality, but it seems like a worthwhile get.

Interesting, is there a megabundle #1? I can't find it.

I think they're limited time things unfortunately. There was indeed a #1.

Is there a list somewhere of DMsGuild products by author? Their page doesn't have that as an option that I can tell and it would be great to get them listed that way. I'd pretty much buy anything posted by the astute sages from Candlekeep. In fact, it would be great if we did that here at the keep. It could be set up similarly to how the Chamber of Sages is set up.

I have a dream that one day, all game worlds will exist as one.

I don't know that there is a list. I know George Krashos has posted a number of excellent pieces (which I don't think he has always noted on this forum), I have one (Forgotten Characters of the Realms) that I posted to this forum, and a number of other sages have posted the releases of their wares on this forum as well.

I, personally, would prefer to have author names showing in the list of products, before you even click on them.

I agree completely. I think it is a major failing of the DMs Guild site that it doesn't have "Publisher Pages" like the other DriveThru sites have.

Not my thing to recommend my own stuff.

Hopefully 2019 will see some more releases. If I can just perfect time travel.

While I can't speak to its balance as yet, I feel it noteworthy enough that someone converted 1000 spells.

https://www.dmsguild.com/product/302120/The-Blackstaffs-Book-of-1000-Spells

Its a little hefty on price, but the person, with having read it for all of 2 minutes shows enough thought that I'm not feeling jilted (especially considering how much I've paid in the past for previous stuff).

In what way does this contribute to a discussion of DM's Guild material worth recommendation?

From Eric Boyd:
George (who edited and co-wrote it but doesn't want to admit it) made me post something to DM's Guild: "Jergal: Lord of the End of Everything."

https://www.dmsguild.com/product/346895/Jergal-Lord-of-the-End-of-Everything

Here's the overview:
Jergal, the Lord of the End of Everything, is the enigmatic Seneschal of the Dead. Learn about the history of the most mysterious of Netherese gods, including the Rise of Netheril and the Crown of Horns. Find out why Jergal's failed ritual led to the collapse of Netheril and the Weave. Delve into the details of the Seven Sigils War and the Scepter of the Sorcerer-Kings. And finally, unveil the mysteries behind the Rise of the Dark Three (Bane, Bhaal, and Myrkul) and the Fall of the Seven Lost Gods.

Yes. I had shared Part 1 and 2 of Lord of the End of Everything before. This includes some fixes.

In addition, it includes write-ups of the Crown of Horns and the Scepter of the Sorcerer-Kings.

Finally, it includes Part 3 of Lord of the End of Everything, discussing the Rise of the Dark Three.

It also includes a write-up of the Seven Sigils war.

If I don’t end up doing it myself when I have time, I’d like to see an alliance between Sembia and Cormyr against Westgate, and how that would play out. I feel like the aggressions between the two larger nations against each other would be mostly over, and they’d want to focus on a rogue city-state.

The war between Cormyr and Shade controlled Sembia is only about 10 years old. I don't see them getting on any time soon. Those wounds are going to take more time I'd think.
