In Dragon Age 2, where are Tarohne's tomes hidden? It's the Sidequest "Forbidden Knowledge" in Act 2.
I found two so far, in the Chantry and in the Viscount's Keep. How many are there and where are they located?
What happens if you read them / destroy them / take them with you?

There are initially five tomes, but because I'm too lazy to explain where they are, I'll simply quote a source that provides the required information:
After which you are required to find a sixth tome:
Again, the same source will let you verify, but here's my trimmed down version of what your options are once you reach each book (including the last one):
Destroy book:
Read book: you only get these effects the first time you choose these option
Take book:
I think reading or taking any of the first five will prevent you from finding the last one (and therefore from finishing the quest), so you might wish to save the accept or take options until the book in the Forgotten Lair since you can only get the "positive" effects once.
