btw do I have a cat yet? if not I NEED one

I feel like we should obtain such a thing either way, and then start a breeding program

I would take them all if I could, but I only have access to the raid function, not the pillage or raze. I was thinking I could go on a mission for a specific book, but now the wiki is telling me they'll just steal whatever they feel like, but artifacts first. Also, for a little extra help, a necromantic book must contain at least one of these following words according to the wiki: Annihilation, Bereavement, Death, Demise, Departure, Doom, Dying, Eternal Rest, Expiration, Extinction, Mortality, Immortality, Loss, Oblivion, Parting, Ruin, Ruination, Sleep, the Afterlife, the End, the Grave. Also, I had never considered that fortress mode creatures can't read slabs, that might become a problem because adventure mode doesn't work anymore.
No adventure mode, and razing and pillaging don't work?
Just typical modded hell changing the unchangable.

I'm going to put that in the quotes section once I get a chance, but for now, there's this. I spent the past three hours sifting through the artifact screen for potential slab and secret book targets, and good lord, there are a lot of them. I hardly even scratched the surface, but here's what I found before I decided to give up. Please, decide which ones we should go after first and I'll put a poll for it.

Keep in mind that there is the potential that fortress mode creatures can't read slabs, so if we want actual results we might have to stick to books and scrolls and such. Also, not all of these items are accessible from where we are, but most are. I was going to make an in character update for all of this, but at this point I'm too shot from taking and processing all of these images, so please, what magic circles do you want us to dabble in first?

Poll is up, later when I get a chance I'm going to hunt around the raws to see if I can get a general idea of what each secret does.

Did Toady fix the part where you can't get artifacts held by people?
Of course, even if he did not, the power of Modded Hell might just have done so.

Foundations of blizzards.
Misconceptions about the Dragonlords.
Creatures Uncovered.
Book of Coagulation.
All books containing secrets, that are not held by anyone, and thus I think we should get.

In general, we should focus on books containing secrets, that are not held by anyone.
Once we have gotten them, we can get whatever other books we want, if not held by anyone.
Are there non-book, non-scroll, non-slab artifacts?

Considering how many kinds of cheese there are IRL, I'd say it should be way more than 43 pages, especially since in DF they also milk kangaroos and tapirs in addition to usual cows, goats and sheep.

Don't forget pigs, horses, and yaks.

I think it's more to teach you how to magically tap into the infinite wisdom of the ancient cheese making gods, not a literal manual on how to make great cheese.

What I wonder is, what does the legendary cheese making secret do? Give you the ability to turn people into cheeses?

Last time I checked it allows you to shoot cheese projectiles through sheer force of will, as well as turn corpses into fondue monsters. But I'm going to recheck, because this very specific piece of information could have been from something completely unrelated.

Eh, I was close:

Here's dragon too, because that's currently winning:

Okay, now I really want to find bee secrets, its described as this:
melisso - bee (honey spit, bee gun, bee swarm, giant bee)

Alright, now I'm confused. Does learning a secret like this automatically make you NOT_LIVING? Because these summoned minions are opposed to life but the secret doesn't make the wizards specifically NOT_LIVING.
