OK, I've got to the book, but it's protected by a forcefield...
This one is fantastic so far! Nice, readable patrol patterns making it actually fun to try and ghost, fun, logical puzzles - great!

I've also really been liking this but I got stuck.
I made it to the book and disabled the traps. However, I still need to disable the forcefield. There's a gate which says I need to kill two guardians, referring to fire shadows, but I've only found and killed one of them in the cylindrical crusher room with the levers. The only other place I can see where I haven't been already is a room with a gas arrow on the other side of a gate. There's a tunnel leading into that room but I don't know where the tunnel entrance is.
Got a good laugh out of the guests at the inn.

Figured it out - and Schlock, think you're stuck in the same place:
To get the book, you need the Sacred Hammer to break the forcefield.
To get the Sacred Hammer, you need to put a candle on a plate in one of the rooms.
To get the candle, look for broken masonry in the very first room of the catacombs and look up.

Now I'm stuck again...
In the crypt area, the only place I haven't got unlocked is the room with the dead burrick. I can see a gas arrow in there.
I've got a fire arrow from the lost city area, and I know where the portal is.
Sooo I need to find out how to get into the room with the dead burrick and the gas arrow.

Hmm, I already had the hammer, I think I might have done some things out of the intended order.

If you've got the hammer, you just need to use it on the forcefield.

I did, and now I have the book, but I'm still stuck. I can't find the way to the gas arrow, same as you, and I still haven't found the second guardian to get past the lost city gate.

You've already killed both guardians, otherwise you couldn't exit the crypt area.
Nicked: Gas arrow: look for burrick tunnels in the lake/portal area.
