The land of Ancaria has many writers, poets, and artists. Their work can be seen within the pages of Books that conquered enemies will leave behind as lucky spoils for fortunate victors. The books will not, as yet, enhance or give a character any known game-playing benefits. The knowledge in these books range from recipes on how to construct a perfect llama goulash, as to why smelling proper while hunting is important. Delightful glimpses into the history of Ancaria and advice offered on skilled spell-casting, the story of T-Energy, and how to set a proper table for Orcs are all a part of this world's literary heritage. Read on and discover!

Right-clicking any book found within the inventory will then add that book to a player's list of "read" books. Pressing "L" next will open up the player's logbook, and clicking the "book" tab at the top will display all of the "read" books.
