Diablo III by Nate Kenyon
" One of the best video game novelizations I've ever read. It really ties up the beginning of the story before the start of the game excellently. I will also mention that it describes the events of the other Diablos in case you haven't played them.... "

Ed Rambeau Thanks for accepting my friend request, Nate. You seem like an interesting person, as well as a prolific and accomplished author, so feel free to tell me more about yourself and perhaps we can grow to become even greater friends. I, myself, am a singer/songwriter/actor who has recently turned author. My 2 top ten recordings were CONCRETE & CLAY (as a singer) and NAVY BLUE (as a writer)...both in the early 1960's. My first novel is an unusual murder mystery entitled "Forbidden Steps".

Regards, and have a great day, Ed
