My trope sense just shouted “Book of magic spells!” Which probably has the adjectives of “lost, taboo, forbidden, dark” or a combination of lost and/or taboo/forbidden and/or dark.
Definitely a book of magic though, in this sort of setting, they always pop up in sort of shady but curious circumstances.
(if I get this right cool, posting as I’m reading through for the first time.)

Kind of cute how he knows the books/sorting system so well. ^_^ Noticed the little fang in panel 5. A also agree that titleless books are suspicious. :U

It looks as if the cover was damaged at some point, indicating either impressive age or storage in less than ideal conditions. Generally, the spine should have the title; failing that, check the title page.
Besides, it lacks the lock necessary to qualify it as a taboo book of darkness.

the moment when “Chronicles of the Dark War” is actually legitimate history.
