Format:Hardcover
Excellent, supreme, superb and all the rest. This book is an absolute must have. Certainly every group should have acces to a copy, really every player - it's just that good. Thousands of spells from sources so diverse that no one person could ever posses them all - until now. Between the PHB and this Compendium a caster has spells for near any concievable situation. Not only that, but there is a wealth of Domains for Clerics too. The Compendium has taken a page from the MM and includes a sensory descritpion for each spell - describing what it looks, feels or even smells like to cast the spell.
Some of the spells have been modified - Greater Mage Armour for instance no-longer requires a material componant, but generally these are sensable modificatiosn and the wise DM will probably rule that the SC takes precidense over other sources of the same spell, where disparitties occur.
The only slight gripe is that the Compendium does not contain spell lists for non-core classes, such as the Wu-Jen or Hexblade.
Nevertheless, buy, beg, borrow or steal your copy today.

Let's examine the title.
Spell: a means of defeating or circumventing problems
Compendium: a collection.
This book has literally thousands of spells from books that even I have never heard of for situations that I didn't realise I could use spells for. My DM has 'Borrowed' my copy after I spanned a raging river with an illusion spell and so ended the session (and very nearly the role play, he had banked on my not being able to cross said river)
The spells are useful at all levels for all spell-casters.
I need to replace mine to give my DM one of those headaches again...
