Diablo novel

From Diablo Wiki
The events of the book are not told in Diablo I nor Diablo II and its expansion. However, the novel is considered canon. Diablo III will do justice to all the novels and their lore. The cinematic intro of Diablo III shown at the Blizzard Worldwide Invitationals 2008 in Paris showed a ruined city resting on the wall of a mountain. The ruined statues came to life suddenly. This meant Blizzard was hinting players will visit the ruins of Ureh in Mountain Nymyr. These locations only appear in The Kingdom of Shadow by writer Richard A. Knaak.
