The book of the dead is an equipable book obtained as a reward from completing A Kingdom Divided. Having it equipped or in the player's inventory is required when casting resurrection spells.

The book is an improved version of Kharedst's memoirs, and offers the same teleports. The book offers as an additional 150 charges over the memories, resulting in a maximum of 250 charges if all five of the pages from the original Kourend quests have been added.

If lost, the book can be reclaimed from Commander Fullore on the ground floor of the Kourend Castle. Additional copies can be purchased from Perdu for 9,500 coins each.
