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.
For players of the eagerly anticipated Diablo III,
this mysterious tome will provide a deeper understanding
of the franchise and its storyline.
