The Real Barenziah is my favorite set of books to read –– I also rather like the one that gives you an extra point in Restoration, Notes on Racial Phylogeny. And The Black Arrow. And the Mystery of Talara set. I get sidetracked by all the books I look at in Oblivion, actually.

2920, Last Year of the First Era.

The Lusty Argonian Maid ~ obvious reasons!

The Real Barenziah ~ "...You know what they say about Khajiit men.." :rofl:

The Argonian Account ~ I was always a bit curious about Black Marsh, and reading that was quite entertaining.

the daggerfall version of the real barenziah

The Real Barenziah: Volume 4

Immortal Blood

I can't think of the name but there's one in IV that's about the two guys who visit the various realms of Oblivion and survive all kinds of horros, and the traveler of the pair is finally defeated -- by a library. LOL also rather like me.

Chance's Folly is my favourite by far, quite horrific.

The Oghma Infinium. That counts, right?

The Eslaf Erol series.
Also Feyfolken.

For humor's sake, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Capn%27s_Guide_to_the_Fishy_Stick :yes:

Guys, I think we have a winner
Palla

Read "The Real Barenzhia" from Daggerfall. :wink_smile:

Nope still Palla

I also like the book that speaks of all the different names the different cultures of Tamriel give to the Gods.

Varieties of Faith in the Empire

IMO, Pella

There are many nice stories that I read from Morrowind. Sadly I wasn't that much into reading in Oblivion.

1. The story about some noble (the wolf queen's son?) trying to catch a spy at dinner. All the people there were spies and knew that the noble is trying to poison them, so they feign eating.
But the noble said the poison was not in the food, but in the forks and cups, and the cure is in the soup. One spy drank from the soup and confessed who sent him to spy on the noble, but the poison was actually in the soup and he died a horrible death.

The psychology of the story was intense.

2. The story about a twin who is great at blocking and was trying to find his other twin brother. He actually killed him in a battle and didn't know it because both of them had their helms on. But the witch at the camp knew it but didn't say a word.

Palla is really creepy

I like how there are various books in Tamriel library
documental, scientific, adventures, funny, plays, but most of all I like horror books
And Palla is best example of it
and as we all know love IS red, like blood

Especially when taking into consideration that every 3rd guest was a spy




Well, that was life changing experience

Also, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Boethiah%27s_Pillow_Book

The Wolf Queen series (8 books). Plus is has kind of a Nord flare to it also.

Tome of Unlife
Nice reading material before going to grave bed

lol in fact, this one and Mysterium Xarxes was kind of nice to look at and trying to figure what it might be saying!

The tragedy of the Dwemer, I loved the mystery sorrounded the last remaining Dwemer and when I finally met him, I was like "muahahaha"

I also love the story of King Lysandus, sort of a main villain that you're supposed to save rather than kill. I loved the various plots in Daggerfall, too bad I can't stand that game's graphics today. :-/
