If I didn't know any better I'd say that was one of the Path of the Divine skills. Check your skills, then learn the book and see if any of them have changed. It may give you a point to the skill "Bless". Where did you find the book?

Save, click on the book and read the description on screen (pause first, if you want). If it is something you don't want, re-load and sell it.

Ahh, it's mage's spell. Level 1 I think. Open the skills plate and move your mouse on it.

I saved and click it. I got 1 to magical might.

I reloaded and clicked again and i got bless.

Maybe it randomly picks a spell for you to learn.

Strange... I would have thought that the skill would be set when the mouse was moved over it to pick it up (as with equipment properties). I have found/bought 'Spark' spell books which taught a level of Lightning or (IIRC) Elemental Hail, but I just assumed that was chosen before you actually 'read' it.

i opened the bookcase, saw the book and saved. Then grabbed it and read it, before reloading and doing it again.

Strange! All the spellbooks I ever found bore the names of the spells they contained!

I've seen a few that have a generic name that apply to a number of spells. Do you read it (possibly a waste) or sell it?

The later. I played once as a Warrior and the second time as a Survivor so I thought "why bother?" and sold the books.

Wait... Why do you sell such books. Is it dangerous <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> to have some useless skills? Or it is just shameful to have fireboll while beign a warrior? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Or just for money? But I never had problems with money - I got ~200 000 from Ilona's dungeon and sell that stuff till the end of Rivertown part.

Nope, it's not dangerous to have "useless" skills. Maybe his warrior doesn't have a lot of mana? Some like to play the classic class style.
