The Book of Oberon is a grimoire written in three hands that represents the work of practicing magicians copying from grimoires and recording their spells and experimentation.
The text is long and often internally inconsistent, which makes sense for a working collection of experiments and research, but lavishly illustrated and notable for its inclusion of fairies such as Oberion (best known as Shakespeare's Oberon from A Midsummer Night's Dream).
The list of contents provided here are all currently incomplete.
