Description
Book of Prava is a Diablo sourcebook. It is the fifth installment in the Horadric Vault series.
The book is in English.
With Inarius fallen to Lilith and enemies closing in, Reverend Mother Prava turns to Sanctuary's religions to chart her own path forward. Join her in this stunningly illustrated compendium of theological lore from Blizzard Entertainment's Diablo® universe.
Following the Cathedral of Light's unexpected defeat in the Burning Hells, Reverend Mother Prava has returned to Kyovashad broken, with doubt clouding her mind. Lacking guidance from her patron, the Reverend Mother turns to scholarly pursuits as she heals her body and soul, learning all she can from Sanctuary's varied denominations…even as a corruptive force begins to grow from within her own.
Direct from the Diablo® development team and award-winning author Matthew J. Kirby, this immersive tome with dazzling, all-new illustrations showcases the belief systems that have taken root in Sanctuary over eons. From the Cathedral of Light to the cult of the Triune, Prava's exploration reveals how the power of faith can steer one's destiny, or that of all humanity.

The book focuses on the character Prava, which gives it a much stronger religious undertone than we are used to in the Diablo world. We get to know her past, her motivations, and the reasons behind her actions. She is a character who cannot be clearly categorized as either a hero or a villain. We watch her struggle with her failure and the death of the god Inarius, whom she worships, all while she begins to lose control over her people and her church. Witnessing this decay—the loss of authority, certainty, and faith—is one of the book's most powerful moments. This makes Prava feel human, which is a rarity for side characters in this game series.
For Diablo fans, I can definitely recommend it. For everyone else, it probably won't mean much.
Kniha se zaměřuje na postavu Pravy, a proto nese mnohem silnější náboženský podtext, než na jaký jsme ve světě Diabla zvyklí. Poznáváme její minulost, motivace i důvody jejího jednání. Je to postava, kterou nelze jednoznačně zařadit mezi kladné či záporné hrdiny. Sledujeme, jak se vyrovnává se svým selháním a smrtí boha Inaria, kterého uctívá, a to v době, kdy začíná ztrácet kontrolu nad svým lidem i církví. Sledování tohoto rozkladu – ztráty autority, jistoty i víry – patří k nejsilnějším momentům knihy. Díky tomu působí Prava lidsky, což je u vedlejších postav herní série spíše vzácností.
Pro fanoušky Diabla ano, určitě mohu doporučit. Ostatním to samozřejmě asi nic neřekne.
