What are some of your favorite in-game books of SK? Particularly (but not necessarily) having to do with the mythology/history of Pyrathia.

I like Islands of the Deep Ocean. Make me go seek them all out one day.

Humans by Howard Hlnisning (though it could stand some reformatting)

I like the one on all the gods, it's in one of the newbie starting areas, but it's got a little information about each from one of their followers. It was pretty interesting.

My husband's character got his hands on a book on astrology, and as someone who's very much into mysticism and various forms of divination IRL, that interest translates to a lot of pcs I make, so I would have loved to have had the chance to read that.

I read it about a year ago, I forgot what it was called but it was some sort of haunted story about a zhenshi samurai and a ghost woman. That one was pretty cool. I need to read it again.

But my favourite two books is the one about the halflings in the halfling undead village in the northern wastes, and the book about the history of the necropolis.

I remember reading some book about some silver shoes? That was a quick read and gave me some laughs. Wouldn't put it as one of my favorites. But something memorable.

I always liked the collection in the Tower of Dundalis.

Elf lore, specifically the book in Craeftilin that's a more "impartial" take on elfs vs delfs.

The Journal of Shur Task is eh. I may have misspelled the name, but its a great piece of the story of near history of Pyrathia.

The one that Cannibal and I wrote together, that like I don't think exists anymore. Le sigh.
