New books and new games

Books -- I've had my eye on Magic of Incarnum, and teh Spell Compendium for a while. I have been deficient on the Area of magical learning for too long. I've known magic from the DM's point of view mostly. The kind of magic that is "Okay I need this to happen from this NPC...okay it happens." nothing to vested in the rules, and I need to change that.

Magic of Incarnum however looks to be something new nd very cool. I hope it doesn't turn into 3 editions Psionic rules... Where it always feels tacked on and not completely integrated... But I think i have the answer for that. In terms of Eberron Incarnum is the bridge between the soul and magic, and it was first pioneered by the Illumians, (Incarnum , Illumians it works doesn't it?) , it was first approached clinically by the Illumians a few other races were born into it however. (i've never read MoI but I can guess that wizards has put a few races in there that can use Incarnum by their racial properties.

Some of these new thoughts and developments are as a result of my thinking of my december campagin... I need a name for it
