The Wages of Sin are War is an ancient Tome in Diablo I that can be found on the 8th level in the catacombs. The book explains how the Great Conflict became the Sin War.

The Wages of Sin are War

An excerpt from the Wages:

"Take heed and bear witness to the truths that lie herein, for they are the last legacy of the Horadrim. When the eternal conflict between the High Heavens and the Burning Hells falls upon mortal soil, it is called the Sin War. Angels and Demons walk amongst humanity in disguise, fighting in secret, away from the prying eyes of mortals. Some daring, powerful mortals have even allied themselves with either side, and helped to dictate the course of the Sin War."

Author is unknown, but most likely a Horadrim scholar.
