Book Description: From
the slums of Kingsport to the shores of the Cold Isles, the belching sewers of
Khanduran holdfasts to a crumbling castle on the moors of Scosglen, Hell takes
root in its varied forms. But a warning is offered to those who would challenge
it: Evil endures defeat, death, and time. Lose vigilance for but a moment, and
it will return to claim what it is owed.
From the Diablo® development team and some of the
darkest minds in modern horror comes this testament to the relentless march of
evil, and the sacrifice it takes to earn even a moment’s reprieve. Shadows of Sanctuary is a chilling reminder that even the bravest intentions can
lead to tragic ends.
