Diablo III: The Order

De: Nate Kenyon

Narrado por: Scott Brick

The direct tie-in to Diablo III, the fastest-selling gaming series of all time—starring the sole survivor of an ancient order who holds the fate of the mortal world in his hands.

Deckard Cain is the last of the Horadrim, the sole surviving member of a mysterious and legendary order. Assembled by the archangel Tyrael, the Horadrim were charged with the sacred duty of seeking out and vanquishing the three Prime Evils: Diablo (the Lord of Terror), Mephisto (the Lord of Hatred), and Baal (the Lord of Destruction). But that was many years ago. As the decades passed, the Horadrim’s strength diminished, and they fell into obscurity. Now all of their collected history, tactics, and wisdom lie within the aged hands of one man. A man who is growing concerned. Dark whisperings have begun to fill the air, tales of ancient evil stirring, rumblings of a demonic invasion set to tear the land apart.

Amid the mounting dread, Deckard Cain uncovers startling new information that could bring about the salvation—or ruin—of the mortal world: other remnants of the Horadrim still exist. He must unravel where they have been and why they are hiding from one of their own.

As Cain searches for the lost members of his order, he is thrust into an alliance with an unlikely ally: Leah, an eight-year-old girl feared by many to carry a diabolical curse. What is her secret? How is it tied to the prophesied End of Days? And if there are other living Horadrim, will they be able to stand against oblivion? These are the questions Deckard Cain must answer . . .

. . . before it is too late.

For Diablo 3 fans!

You will like this book if you've played Diablo 2 or 3. The book focuses on Leah and Deckard Cain's first adventure. The narrator does a masterful job at bringing the medieval world to life. The story is easy to understand but complex enough to hold your attention.

If you've never played Diablo before you'll still enjoy the book too! The introduction of the characters and their interactions with one another, paint a vivid picture of how the trust and pain of the two protagonists develop into a familial relationship.

This book is excessively violent and while that doesn't put me off, I felt it lacked an element of depth that experienced fantasy veterans crave.

Amazing book!

I play Diablo 3 on a regular basis and being able to learn more about the back story leading up to the current events has always intrigued me! Being able to listen to the story made it even more enjoyable! Very well done and highly recommend this to anyone who wants to know more about Diablo 3 and the events leading up to the current status of the game!!!

great store good to learn more

a great read if you want to learn more about Deckard and what all he has done over the years

Loved every minute

The story was great and I love Scott Brick's narration. If you love the Diablo world you will love this.

super meh

I really struggled to get though the book. the flash backs were very jarring and it was slow to get started. I contemplated not even finishing the book about half way though (7 hours in) and it didn't get good until about 10 hours in.

amazing

everything was amazing about this, only complaint I guess would be no sound effects of the Demons or the fights! if that was ever added into this it would be perfect in my opinion!

Kind Of Boring, But Serves Its Purpose

Can't exactly put my finger on it, but this one was just kind of boring. I suppose I wasn't a big fan of the sudden switches between vision, flashback and present, all of which get blurred quite often. Deckard is super lame and miserable, and that's not particularly enthralling, either. As a backstory for Leah, this book serves its purpose just fine, so there's that. I like Scott Brick from the Halo series, so that was also positive. All in all, this book was OK, so if you're a fan of Diablo 3 or have already read the rest of the books in the series, I would say go ahead and knock this one out.

I absolutely love Diablo and now Scott Brick as well lol

I think that Scott Brick made the book so much better I think he executed Cain very well I'm also judging this from playing the game vs Scott reading lol he made me want to keep listening and really pulled me in. (My personal opinion that is) also this is the 3rd audiobook I've ever listened too/ finished Great story as well! love Diablo I first learned of Diablo playing in a buddys friends basement on a computer with about 7 other people and I instantly feel in love!!

love this story

the whole lore of diablo is a MASTERPIECE. Literally no story comes close to how captivating the whole world building lore of this series is. if one has yet to play the games I urge those to give it a try.

Nostalgia like no other!

Such a good way to tie diablo 1 and 2 to diablo 3. Music is epic and great story! Check it out
