Books can be a valuable source of clues and information, and therefore can be useful in an adventure. Some are valuable as items of treasure on their own right. Not every book encountered has this type of value or worth, though. Some of those books found may be factually wrong, contain misinformation or simply be of limited use or irrelevant.
This is a collection of 100 different low-value books that could be found in the Monarchies of Mau. These can be used to flesh out a bookshelf, whether it be at the Library in the Trees or simply a collection of books belonging to a noble. All the books have been written by cats; there aren't any works of the Old Ones in the list. In a fantasy setting, even a generally useless book will usually be worth a small amount of money, as books in general can be uncommon. Whether a book has any in-game value or use is up to the Guide.
