Are they worth-it? Any good? I've heard that there are like 200,and that they give you a good view of the story as a whole for diablo. Feedback please. People are talking about all this stuff I don't know about,so I guess I need to read the books. I need to know if it's worth-it first,though.

Well, I am in the middle of the first sin war book, and it is great! Pretty good read, also thats the first book if you want to read them in chronological order, so I would say buy it, read it, and go on from there to say if there worth it, I myself will be buying book 2.

This is the order. You should read the Sin War Trilogy at least
Diablo - The Sin War - Book One - Birthright
Diablo - The Sin War - Book Two - Scales of the Serpant
Diablo - The Sin War - Book Three - Veiled Prophet
Diablo #1 - Legacy of Blood
Diablo #2 - The Black Road
Diablo #3 - Kingdom of the Shadow
Diablo - Moon of the Spiders
Diablo - Demonsbane
Edit - The Sin War Trilogy is one continuous story with only smalls gaps between that follows the same main character. The #1, #2 and #3 books are not the same story, I know they're not continuous but I'm not sure if they're chronological or not

Wrong.
This is how it goes.

Anyway, it depends whether you're looking at the books chronologically or in the order they were released. I like to read things in the order they were released
Demonsbane (2000)
Diablo #1 - Legacy of Blood (2001)
Diablo #2 - The Black Road (2002)
Diablo #3 - Kingdom of the Shadow (2002)
Moon of the Spider (2005)
Sin War 1 - Birthright (2006)
Sin War 2 - Scales of the Serpent (2006)
Sin War 3 - Veiled Prophet (2007)
From what I've heard Demonsbane, Moon of the Spider, The Black Road and The Kingdom of the Shadow are not worth reading anyway
Yeah, the whole Bartuc the Bloody thing is confusing. The biggest reason I can think of is just that the devs just wanted to have a bit of a reference to him, without really having him. "Bartuc the Bloody" isn't quite "Warlord of Blood" - close, but not quite. If it is him, he is nothing like he was in his former glory (notice that he doesn't have his armour).
Thank you guys big help. I read allot,because I get horribly bored at random times. So this will get me through allot of rainy days. My public library is horrible+ the towns people always steal the books they check out,ROAR. This will help me get a better view on diablo. For one,I have no clue where tyreal came from (don't tell me I will rage at myself if you do.) And all these councils and what not all confusling I'd say.

Ah, thank you then. That would have been a question I would have always want answered. I hope there's a book about him. That would be cool,but then again....most books that talk of religion,and put the point of view from the angels points of view ,the book ends up weird and bordering on stupid. Oh and your signature is cool atrumetis ^_^.

The Black Road comes before Legacy of Blood.
here's a thread stickied in the Lore and Storyline forum specifically going into this.
Spoilers for the books.
The Black Road talks about Tristram, but mentions nothing of D2. Legacy ends with D's entrance into act 2 of D2.
Wrong.
This is how it goes.
Diablo - The Sin War - Book One - Birthright
Diablo - The Sin War - Book Two - Scales of the Serpant

Diablo #3 - Kingdom of the Shadow
Diablo - moon of the spider
and for the order of book to gameplay. ask atrumentis or elfen. i know that they will post a big order about it.
I must of missed that thread about the chronological order ^

SPOILER FOLLOWING! SKIP PAST IF YOU HAVE NOT READ LEGACY OF BLOOD AND PLAN ON DOING SO!
What is with Bartuc?
He dies.
Armour lives.
Armour is suppressed.
He fights you as Baal's minion.
What happened? Did someone get the armour from Horazon, give it to Baal and he revived Bartuc from it? Seems like the only way that could happen...
Lol, no, he came from the High Heavens. Where else? Its not really ever specifically talked about.
Heh, thanks. My sig is a quote from The Black Road. I should probably reference the quote properly...
