I'm digging the lore and thought about diving deeper. Anyone tried reading the books? Are they any good?
I've read The Black Road, Legacy of Blood and The Kindome of Shadow and they're quite ok. Certainly not the best literature has to offer, but good enough if you dig the lore. Also, they are a quick read and cheap, so perfect for vacations :D
I've read legacy of blood as a kid and loved it lol. From what I recall the main guy had some autonomous armor taking him on a wild ride.
Yes, it's the cursed armor of Bartuc!
Kingdom of Shadow was awesome. Legacy of Blood, Black Road were quite good. Spider Moon was fine.
Sin War trilogy was... sadly not enjoyable. I tried, I really did - I just couldn't care and never finished it. I might try again just for the lore, especially in context of D4.
Didn't try the others, also wondering if it makes sense to try myself.
Would Kingdom of Shadow be a good place to dive in or is there a better starting point. Appreciate the insight, cheers!
Yes Kingdom of Shadows is a good place to start. There isn't much of a link between books, apart from the Sin War trilogy. After KoS pick up Moon of the Spider, as it has more from one of the main characters in KoS. Great books!
