why would the mage have a spellbook? he can just memorize spells.
as for clerics & paladins, both of those use books/holy scripture as a conduit for their faith, to channel & borrow the powers of the deity/being they follow. they (usually) need the scripture on hand (or at least in hand) to cast spells for this reason. think of it like a lightning rod. sorta. kinda.
But mechanically, in Shattered Pixel Dungeon he doesn't, unless I missed something in an update (I don't usually play that class).
And yeah, calling it holy scripture would work fine. I just feel like calling it a spell book highlights the fact that the Sorceror is really just a wand/magic staff user and doesn't have much "spell" mechanics directly.
It is in fact called the 'holy tome' in game, I agree calling it spellbook would be confusing, especially as 'unstable spellbook' is already an artifact.
