Fleshworm infestation (UM 220), 40 minutes to prepare this spell? It looks very useful, I just don't see this prep time component on any other spell in the section or in previous books (only did a quick look). Seems like an arbitrary, or mistaken, addition since there are a few other spells that are more heavy handed and worth balancing.

I think it's intended to balance out the fact that only Dispel Evil, Limited Wish, Miracle, and Wish can remove it before its duration expires. The spell is pretty heinous, so the removal restriction can be crippling.

I agree that the spell itself is awesome and needs a certain drawback, my beef is more with seeing this particular way to balance used only once throughout the entire book.
Where is it described how Preparation Time works? I tried searching the PRD but came up with nothing.
