    You only need a total of 25 books for this achievement, and the reward for all 25 is a silver key, part of the 30 key achievement:

    Fable AnniversaryYou Are A Super PlayerThe You Are A Super Player achievement in Fable Anniversary worth 101 pointsFind all 30 silver keys. In unrelated news; the Fable Anniversary Strategy guide is available now!


    You can find the books either on a bookcase, inside smash-able containers, in a merchant's inventory or just sitting on a table. After donating nine books, you'll receive a Wizard Hat. It will be Bright or Dark depending on which books were donated.

    My advice would be to check every bookshelf & cupboard in every house, just be mindful that it counts as stealing if you're witnessed.

    Cheers to THEpaynexkiller for the proof read, cheers Kennyannydenny for locations and cheers to FourthBig Boss for pointing out something I noticed, Creatures of the North in Snowspire Village doesn't seem to count. My game wouldn't accept it and neither would his, as such I have removed it from the guide.
    Cheers to Snowed for the advice. Cheers to Warboy925 for the Eyes of a Killer tip.

    If you do vote Negative, I hope at least you'll explain why.

    Monkeyman1188Just to let everyone know, i did this with fable anniversary and you can stand there and give him all 25 books in one go, one after the other without needing to sleep inbetween. So go collecting throughout the game until you have them all, then do it all in one go, might save a bit of time.

    DJH4311It's more an issue with the in-game day/night cycle. He only accepts books between certain times of day, how many depends on how long you listen to him talking about each book.

    Can anybody tell me how can I put a direct link to a specific minute in the guides of the web? This way I could improve the video putting the minute of every object, as I do in the video's description to make it more usefull. But I don't get how to do it. Thanks

    If anyone make a negative vote please tell me why, so I can improve my future videos.

    EurydaceGoing to a specific time in a youtube is fairly easy. You just need to know how to change the URL. This will do it for you, though:
