Module:Table of spellbooks is a Lua module which contains information used by Module:Spellbook. If you want to add new Lua functions to process this page, write them in Module:Spellbook.

To generate this script, see https://github.com/jkornelsen/crawl-wiki-modules. Or, update it by hand.

Note: the value of a book is simply 20 * (sum of spell levels of spells in book + number of spells in book). See item_value() in shopping.cc for more info.
