Prawn here with a look at most of the book locations in Crimson Desert. You need these books to get the crafting recipes for gear, armour and more. So whether you're trying to get a new shield, fancier leather armour or something else, this guide should help. I've also got bonus things like the Kuku bird mount, Dragon gear and recipes for gold and platinum too.
Timestamps below so you can find particular books if you need them!
