 Spell books are not exactly rare, but there are so many different ones out there that finding a specific spell book may be difficult or even impossible in a given game. While book [[shop]]s provide a large, random assortment to choose from, spell books are also generally on the expensive side. Thus, obtaining a specific spell book that you want can be a hassle, but you can alleviate this by worshiping the right [[god]].
-[[Sif Muna]] grants spell books as [[gift]]s, which are more likely to be in for a school you've trained in.

So by sheer numbers, you are likely to recieve a useful book. Bookstores can, of course, spawn in the regular dungeon, where Gozag's funds at least help buy them.

-[[Sif Muna]] grants spell books as [[gift]]s. Sif Muna is the most generous in this regard: since the types of spell books granted depend on magical skills, you can influence them by training specific skills and thus raise your probability of getting the most useful spells for your play-style. Followers of Sif Muna will eventually have access to every spell in the game this way. [[Kikubaaqudgha]] and [[Vehumet]] both provide spells directly instead of via book; as specialized gods, they provide [[Necromancy]] or [[Conjurations|offensive spells]], respectively. [[Gozag]] may also help in procuring spellbooks; either with a shop already in the Dungeon, or with a shop you've funded.

 '''Spell books''' are [[item]]s that allow player to [[Spell memorisation|memorise]] [[spell]]s.
 ==General==
-There are two types of spell books: standard ones with a set name and list of spells, and randomly generated ([[randart]]) books that contain multiple random, but often thematically linked, spells.
+Spell books are identified automatically on sight. Reading a spell book destroys the book and adds new spells to your spell library. [[Djinn]] are unable to learn spells from spellbooks but destroy the book anyway.
 Besides just finding them on the dungeon floor or in [[shop]]s, spell books can be obtained by using [[acquirement]] or as [[gift]]s from [[Sif Muna]].
