I take the opportunity to ask our visitors to post questions for an interview with Nate Kenyon about the book. Here’s a few photos taken today.

I’m very tempted to start reading today. The book explores the far past, some parts of Diablo II up to five years before Diablo III. Grab your copy of Diablo III: The Order if you haven’t yet (36% discount). Orders over $25 are elegible for free super saving shipping.

The first page is titled “Tristram, 1213” starting with a prologue — Aderes Cain tells the Horadrim story to other children, including her 11-year-old son: Deckard Cain. On the first chapter, we go forward in time to 1272 in the Ruins of the Vizjerei Secret Repository. By that date, Deckard Cain should be Age 70 — it’s been 10 years since the defeat of Baal and the destruction of the Worldstone.

Around the middle of the book, I could read a dialogue that happens during Diablo II before fighting Izual. The climax of the story seems to be around five years before Diablo III, before the birth of the child Emperor of Caldeum.
