Fallout 4 Guide: Perk Book Info and Locations

Fallout 4 has a ton of perks you can choose from. There are more than the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. perks you get from leveling or bobble heads. There are also books you can find throughout the world.

These perks are completely separate, so there’s no need to use your points on them! Some have a series that all do the same thing, others have a series that all do different things, and some are one of a kind.

I’ll tell you all about the perk books and where to find them so you can better plan your character. Check out my Fallout 4 Beginner Tips and Tricks for more info and guides for the game.

This guide will go over perk books and their locations in Fallout 4 including:
