Without spellbook bonuses, bishops can have a hard time keeping all the spellbooks up with their class level. So it pays to know which spells to cast to specifically work on a given spellbook.

Below is a list of spells I've compiled that are spellbook specific. Any omissions or errors are my own.

Note: only spells through level 5 are listed as the early development is often where difficulty lies and because all level 6 and 7 spells are spellbook specific except for Banish, Resurrection, and Turncoat.

Alchemist
(1) Acid Splash, Itching Skin
(2) Blinding Flash, Dracon Breath, Razor Cloak
(3) n/a
(4) Acid Bomb, Fire Bomb, Ring of Fire
(5) Body of Stone, Toxic Cloud

Mage
(1) Energy Blast, Frost
(2) Enchant Blade, Magic Missile, Missile Shield
(3) Fireball, Freeze Flesh, Shadow Hound
(4) Iceball, X-ray
(5) Dehydrate, Freeze All

Psionicist
(1) Mind Stab
(2) Insanity, Slow
(3) Hypnotic Lure, Mindread, Psionic Fire
(4) Ego Whip, Eye for an Eye, Haste
(5) Psionic Blast

Priest
(1) Bless, Make Wounds
(2) Guardian Angel, Holy Water
(3) Armorplate, Magic Screen, Rest All
(4) Superman, Whirlwind
(5) Heal All

From the list, it's easy to see how to initially select two spells from different spellbooks in order to develop a more balanced Bishop.
