No sample wordspells? Boo!
There are some interesting Target/Effect words, though, but many aren't allowed to have Target Words other than those in the document.
Wizards can access about half of the new effects, clerics seem to get a slightly better deal, but I'd have to look closer to be sure.

Huh. I didn't know such a product existed. Now, where's my credit card ...

Yeah, sorry for that, Ben. The longer I worked with Words of Power, the more frustrated I got with it. This is a pared down product from a largely scrapped work that would have been that one chapter of Deep Magic months before that was a twinkle in a certain kobold's eye. The end result of my rebellion against this system was the ethermancer. You can see somewhat similar design in the blast etherspells, but I think not trying to reinvent all of magic helps the ethermancer maintain a compact whole, while its "mana bar" approach makes combining small effects to make one big spell not a total disaster of an idea like it is for Words of Power.
As the class has fairly thoroughly stolen the tinker's thunder and become my #1 product of 2014, I think it all turned out for the best.

Reminder to myself to look at this a bit closer...was considering Words of Power for one of my homebrew campaigns and fleshing it out a bit more with words would help.
