4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Cool, June 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Wizard's Spell Compendium, Vol. 1 (Advanced Dungeons & Dragons) (Paperback)

A good compilation of spells. I like the tables in the front of this (the first) book. I understand this is not meant to be a rule book, but some help on where to find rules on chronomancers would be nice, since there are a fair number of spells for them in here. Recommend getting 1st and 4th books before obtaining rest so that you get the tables and index.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent collection of every kind of spell imaginable!!, August 22, 1998

Diego Santelices Herrera "Diego Santelices" (Santiago, Reg. Metropolitana, Chile) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Wizard's Spell Compendium, Vol. 1 (Advanced Dungeons & Dragons) (Paperback)

This book contains spells used by the Drow, Alhoon (undead illithids), elven high magic, paramanders (a kind of paladin-mage), even the Red Wizards of Thay, and then some!! It is not only useful for rewarding mages with cool new spells, it also gives a pretty clear idea of the characteristics of magic in the different settings. Can't get any spells better than these!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource For The Wizard, May 13, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Wizard's Spell Compendium, Vol. 1 (Advanced Dungeons & Dragons) (Paperback)

This book contains ALL of the spells to date in the AD & D game. That's all of them, modules, Tome of Majic, PHB, etc. A must have for the advanced or beginning Wizard. It introduces new schools of majic including elemental maji. Volume One only covers A thru D or E (alphabetically) spells. I'm going to snatch the next volumes as they are out, you should too
