Magic Books of Faerūn

In the Magic Books of Faerūn series, we'll look at some of the more interesting and unusual magic books of Faerūn, describe what magic they contain, and see who currently bears them. Some of these books are revealed for the first time, while others revisit tomes presented in older products like Pages from the Mages and Prayers from the Faithful.

Oh, this looks like it's gonna be a really nice feature! I always loved the tomes from Pages From the Mages...

I think its a nice feature.
Books are nice, there is something more to them then any other oject.
Maybe because they incarnate so much history (and therefore story). They give more deepness to a world.
They are a sort of relics of knowledge that is awsome for player to get his hands on.
Or perhaps is it simply that knowledge is power?

I dont know, anyway that feature is cool :thumbsup:
I like!

I think that this is exactly the type of stuff people want. I look forward to this series. I am happy to see Sean K. Reynolds doing FR again.

Hello Mr. Jindra!

Excellent news! I say it again: EXCELLENT!

I cannot impress upon you enough how quickly and how often I use precisely this sort of material in my game, as I have a player in my group who runs a Loremaster (native to Candle Keep) that is forever asking about Magical Tomes and researching new spells “unique” to Faerūn.

Seriously, a DM needs all the quality help he can get, for which the first rate work of Sean Reynolds is eagerly welcomed into my Realms Campaign.

After all, despite the overall curtailing of all things magical in the Realms to fit the confines of Third Edition, Sean seems the most adept at taking those same rules and stretching (but not breaking) them to their maximum to fit the vast panoply of spells and magic items that give Faerūn its flavor.

Thanks again!

:D
