- Accepted as the primary text by the wizarding world as well as the witchcraft community.
- There is some controversy involved with this book given the wizard's name that appears on it, but it is nonetheless considered the most complete and accurate book of spells ever compiled.
- Contains more than 570 incantations and 850 spells. These range from the very simply to the highly complex incantations.
- The Cloaken Monks gathered up and destroyed all copies of the book they could find when magic was deemed illegal. Some copies were preserved in individual collections. It is believed there are only three ancient copies remaining which include all of the original content.
- Original versions of the book were fully illustrated. The text also included warnings about certain spells and incantations as well as unusual side-effects of others. These are considered rare, but are at times very serious in nature.
- It is rumored, but has never been confirmed, that a copy of this text is kept in the restricted section of the Library of Lady Catherine. (Thieves once broke into the restricted section but were caught in the act. All three were killed by Library guards. It was widely believed they were after the copy of Seatter's Book of Magic.)
