A while ago, on another social media site, someone posted a question along the lines:
What books might provide inspiration for playing a wizard in D&D?
My (long-ish) answer was:
Part of the problem with finding stories which really fit the mold of D&D wizards is that even the source material that inspired D&D doesnโt perfectly fit how D&D magic works. And even the D&D fantasy novels themselves often gloss over how magic works in various editions.

I feel vaguely similarly about the 3.x D&D variant magic Incantations rules.
Sometimes I long for a system of rules that covers everything from researching a new spell to creating magic items under a single unified system.
But time I attempt to cobble one together it ends up getting impractically complicated.
