Book of Eclipse is a Quick-Play Spell. Change all face-up monsters on the field to face-down Defense Position. During this turn’s End Phase, change as many of your opponent’s face-down Defense Position monsters as possible to face-up Defense Position, then they draw that many cards.

Rulings in plain English

When can I activate it? With at least one face-up non-Link, non-Token monster on the field. Not in the Damage Step.

End Phase: Flip first, then draw; no chain. If they can’t draw, only the flip happens. If their Deck is too small, they lose.
