Many of the books sold at B&N or Amazon never get opened. They just lie there. A super-hot bestseller (not necessarily a proof of quality, but for the sake of argument...) is a "One Million Copies in Print" item. For a market of about 400 million (counting US, Canada and UK).And a large portion of THOSE wil end up in the bargain bin.Spellcasters require reading. They also demand a knowledge of the game and (even more) maintenance and management than other characters.One game option that makes things somrwhat easier (and draws away from the ever-criticized Vancian magic system( is to make wizards as sorcerers (and perhaps boost the # of spells / day for the sorcerer): choose from spellbook along the way, no prep. Based on a simple "open slot" system. Give clerics and druids the same advantage.Voila ! No more busting your chops in preparing multiple spell lists ("Let's see ! Got it ! Shipboard list, flight list, overland list, town list, dungeon list, shopping list, 10 best list and list of lists !")</blockquote>
