Publisher Blurb: Behind the Spells: Compendium brings together the first 36 volumes of the "Behind the Spells" series. Not only has the original material been corrected for errata but this book also includes brand new material for select spells and behind the scenes commentary by the author for each spell. Whether you're a fan of the series or haven't quite gotten around to it yet, this is the book for you! As always, for each spell you get a history of the creator, at least two “spell secrets” (new rules for using the spell), and “related research” (new magic items and/or spells which somehow relate to the spell or its creator). Game Masters and players will have a wealth of spell information in these pages just waiting to be unleashed at the game table. Why buy books packed with new spells when there is still so much that can be done with the classics? Get back to basics with Behind the Spells: Compendium!
