Description

In Blizzard Entertainment's “Diablo®” and “Diablo II,” the recurring character of Deckard Cain delivered quests, accompanied the brave adventurer, and, as the last of the Horadrim, provided a link to the greater history of the world of Sanctuary. Ever mysterious during these appearances, Cain hinted at a larger story, providing snippets of it in his notebook. “Diablo III: Book of Cain” is Cain's formal record of this greater tale–a dissertation on the lore of the Diablo universe, told by one who has witnessed and participated in some of the epic events that make up the eternal conflict between the High Heavens and the Burning Hells.

Designed as an “in-world” artifact from the Diablo universe, “Diablo III: Book of Cain” includes Cain's revealing meditations, as well as dozens of sketches and color artworks depicting the angelic and demonic beings who wage constant war with one another.

Review by Bishop on 10th April, 2012
5 stars "Diablo Fan Must"

Stylishly presented with fantastic gothic art of the Diablo universe, makes this seem as if you are really reading Deckard Cains journal. Full history of the world with tidbits if the upcoming installment. Place of pride on the bookshelf.

5 stars "Very detailed"

This book is full of knowledge about the prime evils, the angles and heaps on new never before noted information.

A must read for lore lovers of the Sanctuary.

Enjoy.

 
 
Review by Richard on 18th May, 2012
4 stars "Nice Fluff But Not A Good Game Companion"

Great, well made, well produced book – it's full of lore and little tidbits about the world of Diablo.

If you're getting this to supplement your game, it won't help much – it's a better coffee table book for Diablo hardcore fans more than anything else.

I can't fault the book for what it is, but more for what it isn't. I was expecting something more, something a bit more contributory to the game experience.

Good “fluff” value though :)

 
 
Review by Vaughan on 10th May, 2012
5 stars "a really well made book"

Simply put this book is a combination art/story book.
It tells you about the history of the Diablo Universe as well as many questions that you have probably asked yourself… like how the Pandemonium Fortress came to be for example!

If you're a Diablo fan then this is a really good buy.
