Diablo: Book of Lorath

Diablo

by Matthew J. Kirby

Make your stand against the darkness with this comprehensive stunning artifact handed down by the Horadric Order, your key to the lore of Blizzard Entertainment's Diablo franchise.

Amid the restless evil of Sanctuary, only the Horadrim, an ancient order of heroes and scholars, wield the knowledge needed to light the way for humanity. In the Book of Lorath, join Lorath Nahr, one of the last of the dwindling Horadrim, on a journey through Sanctuary's most powerful relics and the stories behind them. It is Lorath's hope that this volume will preserve his knowledge for all time . . . and pass it down to those who will inherit the fight against the Prime Evils.

Direct from the Diablo development team and award-winning author Matthew J. Kirby, this immersive, must-have compendium showcases the artifacts that have often been, and might yet be, the key to tipping the fate of the world.

Well-written, amazing visuals, and a wonderful lore addition

[Victor Zaporojan · Rating 5 out of 5]

A good somewhat history lesson and more info from diablo1 all the way to diablo 4

[Andrei · Rating 4 out of 5]

While enjoyable, I was expecting either more lore or more artwork. As it stands I feel the book delivers an unhappy medium between the two. Still, worth it for Diablo enthusiasts.

Enjoyable read but nothing special. At least it was better than d4 at launch.
