Didn't glitch for me, there are 4 pieces of lore in The Winding maze section though. They won't show up on your lore checklist till you've got at least one piece of lore from it. Those were the last ones for me after I thought I should have unlocked it.

What you need to know about collecting lore:

Tracking lore
You can see which entries you are missing in the Lore page in the menu. However you have to pick up any one entry of a set for it to show up.

Once you've picked up the surveyor in a dungeon (the ball that runs away from you), you can tell if there are any lore entries left in the dungeon by opening the map (cn_RS). Rooms with a scroll icon contain lore.

Dungeon lore
Lore entries in dungeons are randomized, meaning every lore entry doesn't necessarily spawn in a dungeon every time, so you'll probably need several runs through a dungeon to collect them all.

There's a rumor that some lore entries only spawn on Legendary difficulty, so you might want to try that if you are missing any.

Overworld lore
Apart from the dungeons, there are several exploration areas that contain lore as well. These areas always contain all entries, only the dungeons are randomized.

For the full list of lore entries and locations, see the other solution.

NG+
Lore carries over into NG+ so you can leave a potential grind through dungeons until after completing the NG+ playthrough. When you're overleveled for an area you one-shot everything just like in regular difficulty, except for in the very last area, so grinding dungeons won't be much different in NG+.

Be aware though that NG+ is generally harder, and once you start you can't go back to regular difficulty.

The Lore Book is filled by collecting lore entries from the dungeons and exploration areas. These can show up as books, scrolls, etc. Inside every dungeon you will find a floating eye called a Surveyor, and collecting this will fill in the dungeon map with icons to show what each room contains. If there is a lore entry you have not read, it will show up as a sheet of paper. This doesn't necessarily mean it is a new entry, just that you haven't read it yet on that run.

Since the dungeons are randomly generated, there is no guarantee every lore entry will be available on your first run of a dungeon. Finish collecting them when you replay the dungeons on Legendary. You may even have to run them a few more times after that if you're unlucky, but probably not. All of the lore entries are listed below, with only the ones marked "World" being outside of the game's eight dungeons. The rest are just RNG inside the dungeons, so I've just listed the names of the lore chains so you can be sure you got them all.

  • World: Doomed Voyage - All found in the Derelict Ship.
  • World: An Endless Maze - All found in the Winding Way.
  • World: Stories of Arcane: Time Warp - For Knolan's ultimate weapon, see "All out of bubblegum..."
  • World: Armaments of Legends - All found in the Pale Cathedral.
  • The Iron Outpost - Bandit Reports, Impenetrable, Spoils of War, History of the Iron Outpost
  • Path of Fangs - Notes From the Dark Lady, Traveler's Tales: Path of Fangs, Tribal Messages
  • Junktown - Security Updates, Blood and Water, Jaredd's History of Junktown, The Handoff
  • The Dig - Miner's Ledger, Mana Seekers, Fortune Favors the Bold, Mine Operation Reports
  • Deadwatch - Verimatrax Rising, Notes From the Order, Last Testaments
  • Strongmont - Diary of an Invader, Choices of Men, Defense Against the Territories
  • The Crimson Garden - Making Preparations, The Pact
  • The Mana Rifts - The Calling, Blood of Blood, Price of Ambition, Matter Over Mind

To make it more convenient for you to navigate where and how many records to look for, since some dungeons need to be completed several times:
Iron outpost 4 sets,
The fanged path 3 sets,
Khlamograd 4 sets,
Excavation 4 sets,
Grave watch 3 sets,
Bastion 3 sets,
Crimson Garden 2 sets,

And you must find 4 sets in the process of exploring the world, this includes a labyrinth in a squiggle, as well as 6 books about the legendary weapons from the Pale Cathedral.
