I recommend to read it today Sunday. I read mine on the public transportation while going to work, and after going to work. That hour and a half going back and forth to home and job -- I used it well =)
Good questions. Im wondering when the Worldstone came to exist. Before or after the Sin War? The book seems to sorta imply that the High Heavens didnt know of the existence of Sanctuary at this point in history 3000 years before the Darknening of Tristam.
And as for your first question, no. I didn't mean those demons.
I meant Lucion and Lilith. I don't want to say much about this though. Going into details will spoil too much.
You know what happened at the end of the book Birthright with Lilith. If she was able to return from the void where Inarius himself casted her into, won't she be back again in Diablo 3 for X or Y reason to claim what she thinks is hers?
Richard A. Knaak will discuss details of his latest Blizzard Entertainment and Pocket Star Books project titled
Diablo: The Sin War , Book One: Birthright with the Diablo fans Community.

I read the book already. It seems there may be details that may portent the Diablo 3 storyline. The origin of Sanctuary and men is revealed, and Mephisto is revealed to have a son and a daughter.
Description:
Since the beginning of time, the angelic forces of the High Heavens and the demonic hordes of the Burning Hells have been locked in an eternal conflict for the fate of all Creation. That struggle has now spilled over into Sanctuary - the world of men. Determined to win mankind over to their respective causes, the forces of good and evil wage a secret war for mortal souls. This is the tale of the Sin War - conflict that would forever change the destiny of man.
Three thousand years before the Darkening of Tristam, Uldyssian, son of Diomedes, was a simple farmer from the village of Seram. Content with his quiet, idyllic life, Uldyssian is shocked as dark events rapidly unfold around him. Mistakenly blamed for the grisly murders of two traveling missionaries, Uldyssian is forced to flee his homeland and set out on a perilous quest to redeem his good name. To his horror, he has begun to manifest strange new powers -- powers no mortal man has ever dreamed of. Now Uldyssian must grapple with the energies building within him -- lest they consume the last vestiges of his humanity.
Note: I read a review copy of this book supplied by Simon & Schuster / Pocket Star Books. If I weren't ignorant of what Diablo 3's plot is, I would say this book may show hints of what the topic of Diablo 3 will be. There are maybe one or two entities in this book that could theoretically carry on the plans of Mephisto, Diablo and Baal now that the Worldstone is no more. A shocking revelation!
