Both items are pretty bad. Carnage is a great skill, but without full str/dex investment (depending on weapon) dmg output will be horrible, and no vit means you'll have no defense AND no hp so squishy as hell. The same applies to Mad King Spine, and also the DS bonus (which does not translate 1x1 with superbeast spell dmg, it's way lower) does not compensate the very low base dmg. The only time I've seen the book of Kalen work is when paired with Azurewrath, but good luck finding one...
