| Little Black Book | 
|
|  2
| 112 | It's filled with quotations from Lord Dredmor on all aspects of daily life. These aren't very useful, but at least there are some helpful necromancy tips writhing through the runed borders of each chapter heading. | |||||||||||
| Little Red Cookbook | 
|
|  1
| 212 | Has a 10% chance of Butchery on attack. | Each page is packed with meaty recipes. And it's... oozing. | ||||||||||
| Burning Tome | 
|
|  1
| 1033 | Deals an additional 1 on attack and burns the target.
| 'Contains this season's top-10 hottest invocations!' | ||||||||||

|
|  2
| 1552 | 100% chance to cast Midas on attack, dealing ( 4 +   0.15 ) and creating 4 times this damage in zorkmids.
| It looks like the text in this tome was revised many times after the original writing by the original author who appears to have been driven mad by his magical wealth. It's full of contradictions and largely incomprehensible now; what the heck is a 'whill'? | ||||||||||
| Cloud Formations and Other Occult Phenomena | 
|
|  3
| 4503 | Has a 30% chance to create a confusing fog around you on attack. | Cloud magic is extremely powerful, but not all that useful when you're stuck in a windowless dungeon. Ah well... | ||||||||||
| Practical Handbook of Bee Culture | 
|
|  3
| 10130 | Has a 30% chance to cast Thaumite Infection on attack. | Unfortunately, the only thing in this book are the words OH NO NOT THE BEES written over, and over, again... | ||||||||||
| Tome of Too Much Information | 
|
|  3
| 14130 | Has a 30% chance to cast cast Ennui on attack. | You really didn't need to read this. | ||||||||||
| Tobin's Spirit Guide | 
|
|  1
| 3035 | Has a 50% chance to stun enemies around you while dealing ( 2 + 0.1 ) on attack.
| Remember, kids: when confronting spectral horrors from another dimension it is vitally important to not think about anything. At all. |
