Can't reproduce either, the game crashes instantly when I click to view my combat spells.
Attached logs after the crash.

Please provide savegame just before you try to open spellbook.

Latest build (360), full reinstall of VCMI - the issue still persists. Attached the savegames.
Last check - still the same exact error message in the log as for issue 2757, attached a dump if that could help.
Edit: and a test map if you need one. The Grail is one step below the observatory near the starting town.
2nd edit: just checked. This bug doesn't exist in VCMI 0.99 (as is issue 0002757), but starting from the first PR release (250) it begins to crash.

@Anubis what exact build are you using?

P.S. You should use only latest https://builds.vcmi.download/branch/develop/, [^] not https://builds.vcmi.download/PR/ [^] and not others in https://builds.vcmi.download/branch/ [^]

The bug was tested on several builds.
First which I used is VCMI-PR-360-67d50d1.

Then I tried VCMI-PR-250-89b25317b76436d5c75beb1e7611e65b98a3446e to see if it's something introduced in the latest builds.

Today I switched to VCMI-branch-develop-3de0fa3 (latest of Aug 1).
The issue persists. Attached the most recent server log. It mentions cheating despite me never entering any cheat codes. Was there any team attempt to work on multiplayer cheat detection?

Cheating is not actually cheating, is is forced player quit after internal error

Could you attach client log too. Server log shows smth like unexpected client disconnect

I've just caught a more impressive case of this bug.
So, knowing that switching to Combat spells will crash, I tried to view Adventure spells of a particular school (Air, Earth, Fire, Water) (which I had none of), then I got to viewing all spells. It worked! I was able to turn the page of the spellbook back and forth. For a while. Then the game crashed again.
I've noticed that during each switch of spells the background went dark, then the spellbook loaded.
Attached a ZIP with saves, logs and dumps (I've even got a server dump this time).

@Anubis Try disabling spellbook animation.

@AVS Thank you, that works indeed. No spellbook crashes if I disable the animation.
