The Book Bound in Pale Leather is one of three Objects of Power possessed by the Kencyrath, that were lost during the Fall, when Glendar left them with Gerridon. It appears to be bound in human skin, but the skin appears to be living; it pulses to the touch, and can be bruised by impact. It is uncertain whether the book as a whole is alive. The Book is dangerous to read, and can alter its text. It's some sort of dictionary of Master Runes.

Quote
| - The Serpent-Skin Cloak, the Ivory Knife and the Book Bound in Pale Leather. The third was the greatest loss, I'm told. Nobody ever dared to memorize it, not at least since a priest named Anthrobar turned his brain to a cinder simply by trying to copy the damn thing—and to make matters worse, his partial transcript, which is what we used to get to Rathillien, disappeared soon after our arrival.
