Shannon Appelcline commented that the initial product line for Fourth EditionDungeons & Dragons was "a set of 'power' books that offered new options for players, organized by the power sources of 4E.Martial Power (2008),Arcane Power (2009),Divine Power (2009), andMartial Power 2 (2010) all focusing on 'standard' power sources;Primal Power (2009) andPsionic Power (2010) focused on more esoteric power sources, each of which was introduced in thePlayer's Handbook published earlier the same year."[1]: 191
Divine Power was written byRob Heinsoo,Richard Baker,Logan Bonner, andRobert J. Schwalb, and published byWizards of the Coast in 2009.
Divine Power reached No. 10 onThe Wall Street Journal's non-fiction bestseller list the week of July 30, 2009.[2]
Viktor Coble listed the entirePower series - includingMartial Power,Martial Power 2,Divine Power,Arcane Power,Psionic Power, andPrimal Power - as #2 onCBR's 2021 "D&D: 10 Best Supplemental Handbooks" list, stating that "What sets the power series apart – besides their updated rules – is how they translate really well to 5e. Whereas, the "Complete" series needs a little more work. The rules have both been pared down and expanded upon in this guide, which makes picking up a copy for whatever type of character is most in favor worth it."[3]
