Excellent narration

The narrator, Ineson, is fantastic as always. I’d listen to him read a spreadsheet and I’m pretty sure he’d still make it compelling. The content itself was enjoyable - the encyclopedia entries (artifact descriptions, etc) were interesting, but the really good parts were the travel journal entries. They make me wish this was a straight novelization instead of this more encyclopedia/journal hybrid.
Still really good though. I recommend it if you’re a fan of the game/the lore.

Loved it!! Must have as a Diablo fan.

First of all, Ralph Ineson could probably read the phone book and make it sound great. However, he gives a legitimate dramatic performance as Lorath Nahr for this and I was in heaven. I bought the hardcover book since it's a continuation of the plot line with bits of lore from previous games, written from the perspective of Lorath. When I found out the actual VA did the audio book I immediately bought that too. Having Lorath read you the book while you're turning the pages is definitely the optimal experience. (Especially since there's lines of text he's crossed out that show even more thoughts he had and second guessed.) Mr. Ineson gave a wonderful performance! I was not expecting to get emotional but a few scenes really got to me in a big way. No spoilers, but I'll never think of Westmarch the same way again. They also had me laughing about Wirt and his poor leg. If you're a fan of the Diablo series this is FULL of lore and references. Truly cannot recommend this enough.

This a must for Diablo fans

This is a must-read for Diablo fans. it does not matter if you play the game or just read the novella. Lothar, of course, is the main character, and on his travels, He not only describes what is happening in the moment but gives a detailed account of each artifact.

Good short lore

I throughly enjoyed it, my first audio book I've listened to and I will recommend this one to any Diablo fan.

Lorath my friend

I like that Ralph narrated the book, I had journeyed across sanctuary and anything my friend could share with me was welcome.

It's a very interesting book

I love all the lore and I love all the hints towards the dlc For diablo four

gratis Diablo 4 epilogue.

The book ties loose ends, deepens lore and voice acting is top. mskes me want to replay campaign of D4 eith deeper understanding I got from the book .

Almost Perfect (for what it is)

This Masterpiece of voice acting labors to add the most famious items from the diablo games to the official lore. some of the explanations are paper thin but I'm not sure what else could be done for items like the cow bell and such. I highly recommend this entry!

Informative and Well-Read

Ineson does the same great job he does in the games. This title is basically a whole book's worth of in-game audio logs regarding various relics / items of power in Sanctuary.

The lore and insights are interesting if you're a fan of Diablo's world and story. The biggest portion of lore (it's very briefly mentioned, almost glossed over even) that I was unaware of before now is the fact that both the Cow Level and Whimsyshire are canon and have in-world lore explaining them?!

EXCUSE ME, WHAT?!

I now have a burning desire to know more on this subject, so if you're a member of the horadrim in need of an apprentice, give me a call.

Great book

This was fun to listen to while playing d4 I recommend it I'm hoping to more books come out
