Books and writings are as common in Sanctuary as in any other world, and the writings of men, angel and demon kind alike numbers in the thousands. Here are a few of the known works from the Diablo Universe.
Known Authors and their Works
There are several known authors of literature in Sanctuary and related realms. Many of the more interesting ones are of course powerful magicians or leaders of people. There is also Abd al-Hazir and his travels around the globe, which brings a lot of knowledge to us readers. Here is a list of known authors:
- Abd al-Hazir - Travelling writer, who have seen much of Sanctuary none else ever have.
- Writings of Abd al-Hazir - Collection of entries from his mission to gather information about different regions of sanctuary, and their inhabitants. 42 entries are so far in circulation.
- Xiansai Chronicles - Chronicles that presumably are about Abd's travels in Xiansai.
- Deckard Cain - Scholar and last descendant of the mighty Horadrim. While lacking magic skills, he has tremendous knowledge, and helps any inquisitive traveller or adventurer on their path.
- Deckard Cain's Journal - Journal of the year when Diablo returned and was defeated together with his brothers Mephisto and Baal.
- Elder Aust of Harrogath - One of the town elders in the Barbarian town of Harrogath.
