Enchanted Book

An enchanted book is an item which allows players to add enchantments to weapons, tools, or armor by combining the enchantment book with one of said items on an anvil. The player can create an enchanted book by enchanting a book on an enchantment table. It is a book with the enchantment "glow" and a red ribbon.

The enchanted book will appear in a dungeon chest, as well as a stronghold, mineshaft or village chest. One of the enchanment book has a new enchantment that is named Thorns. It's avaiable in the stages "I II and III". You can't get this enchanment with an enchantment table, only enchanted books. The Thorns enchanment has a chance of reflecting damage back at attackers when placed on armor.

In creative, the books can be found in their associate tabs. (e.g silk touch in the tools tab, fire aspect in the weapons tab.)

Effective combinations
Here is the list of the irregular, effective combination of enchantments and items.

Trivia

 * The player can enchant any block or item with any enchantments in Creative mode with the use of enchanted books and the anvil.
 * Enchanted books allow players to get normally unobtainable enchantments in Survival such as Silk Touch on shears or Unbreaking on a sword.
