Take heed, and bear witness to the truths that lie within, for they are the last legacy of the Horadrim.

If you’re a Diablo lore enthusiast, we have some exciting news for you: the Book of Cain is now fully localized and available in German, French, Spanish, Italian, as well as the original English.

This captivating tome is beautifully presented with aged manuscript-style pages, and comes complete with a separate map of the world of Sanctuary. Starting with a moving farewell letter to his adopted daughter Leah, scholar Deckard Cain has carefully recounted both lore and legend — including his own first-hand knowledge — supported by many intricate illustrations and diagrams.

Study all that is written within these pages. All the work of my life, I now bequeath to you. I know not what in the writings is vital or what is offal. It is a compendium of knowledge collected throughout hundreds of years by adventurers, purveyors of dark arts, Horadric scholars, and madmen. Inside is information that will aid you in confronting the dark days that lie ahead.

For more examples of Deckard Cain’s opus, feel free to read the first chapter, which is fully localized in German, French, Spanish, Italian, as well as the original English version. You can also find more information about the Book of Cain on GosuGamers, one of our official fansites.

For more information on purchasing the Book of Cain, check here for the German, French, Spanish, Italian and the original English version.

@Barstomper: Sorry, I thought there would be a local UK link on that page by the time we published the article. They have it at Amazon UK, but it is temporarily out of stock: http://amzn.to/JYzyAG

@Lirealxi: Though I'm a native speaker and writer of the original English, the article is written in American English as that is the version of English we use here on the site.
