BOOKS

This is a list of books in the game, and where (if anywhere) a particular book is guaranteed to appear. Others must be randomly obtained from chests. Note that even books that appear in a certain place may be randomly generated! This only counts books that show up in the sixth inventory pocket (with gems, herbs, ore, formulas, and so forth). Books in the quest item pocket are listed in section 13.

Jagon's Notes
On the floor in the treasure room of the Temple of Doom. Before entering, mindread Ragnar in the Bandit Camp. Then find the key on the giant stone dragon head in the Temple of Doom (right before the river and lava area). Then open the locked door with the big chest behind it in the previous room, and this book is on the floor nearby. Finishing "Into the Bandit's Den" without mindreading Ragnar will make this inaccessible.
