Spellbook.png Book of Battle
An astonishingly vain and self-aggrandizing work. The author claims credit for a wide swathe of weapon-augmenting magics, but seems to have misunderstood or misrepresented most of them. Only a few of the spells described in the book actually work.

The Book of Battle is a spellbook containing spells helpful for melee combat.
