December: Spell Compendium

After playing a high-level wizard for a few years now -- and lugging around four different books so I'd have access to all the stats and descriptions of the various and sundry spells I'd accumulated -- this fine book arrives. And I imagine that anyone who has a spellcasting character is going to want to flip through all 288 pages of this hardcover compilation of the most useful/popular/useful spells out there.

Apparently, the formatting for the spells is being tweaked and redesigned to make things easier to use. I've not seen it yet, but when I lay my hands on something, I'll slug it into my next article. For now, you can take a look at the descriptive text from the back cover of the book:

The essential spellcaster's companion, Spell Compendium gathers over 1,000 of the best spells from previously published Dungeons & Dragons game supplements and campaign settings, dragon magazine articles, and articles posted on the Wizards of the Coast website. The spells contained herein complement those presented in the Player's Handbook and have been updated to include official errata. In addition, this book contains descriptive read-aloud text telling you what a spell looks like, sounds like, or feels like to cast.
