Diablo III Book of Cain hands on!!

Diablo III Book of Cain hands on!!

Just recently, I got fortunate enough to secure a copy of this wonderful book:


Its the Blizzard-licensed book, Diablo III: Book of Cain!! :D

This wonderfully made book is a must-have for Diablo fans, as this tries to emulate/recapture the look and feel of that tome Deckard Cain carries in-game. Complete with rich lore and history of the entire Diablo trilogy, it gives players an inside look of the world of Sanctuary.

Heres some shots of the book itself:

The book cover itself looks and feels great. Its got a nice matte finish with a slight embossment on the details of the book which feels great. The book itself sports amazing artwork (as expected of Blizzard) to accompany the books rich lore of the world of Sanctuary. It even has scribbles and notes from Deckard Cain, putting down important notes about certain events, people, places. It tries its best to closely resemble that of the tome that Decark Cain was carrying, as presented in the game. Even the page edges are small "tears" to make it look like an "ancient" book. Its those little attention to detail that makes this book more amazing to behold in person. :D

Just looking at the book coverpage, it reminds me of those old manuscripts in museums.

It even contains a letter addressed to Deckard Cains nephew; Leah. The letter is abit bittersweet and made me a little teary-eyed. (if you know what will happen to Cain in Diablo III)

The book also details how the world of Sanctuary was created, with accompanying artwork.

The Archangel of Justice; Tyrael, looking majestic, as his illustration accompanies his description in this page.

The book also includes description of the many places in Sanctuary where our heroes hail from; just like this entry about Ensteig... home to the Demon Hunters.

Aside from the said lore and illustrations, the book also has a special surprise at the back:



The book is priced locally at Php 1,395 (roughly $31) and is available in Fully Booked. So if youre a fan of the series, this book is definitely an excellent addition to your book collection, as it fully compliments the game and gives fans additional information and lore that fully fleshes out the world of Sanctuary. :) Hopefully I get my hands on its supplemental book as well; The Book of Tyrael. :D
