Spell Tome (Skyrim)

Spell Tomes are spell-containing books in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. All spells are learned from tomes. Once a tome is read, it disappears. Spell Tomes can be crafted using Ruined Books. Mage merchants sell Spell Tomes, but these objects can also be found as randomized dungeon loot. Due to this randomization, it may be impossible to provide locations for all Spell Tomes.

The Spell Tomes merchants have available for sale depends on skill level. Check back with merchants after leveling a discipline of magic to see which new spells they are selling.

 * A Sparks Spell Tome can be found in a cage in Helgen Keep. Finding the book is involved in the tutorial for Lockpicking. Successfully picking the cage reveals a dead mage, holding the Tome and Apparel suited for mages.
