Reading advice

OK, so I finally caved and got myself the Arthas: rise of the Lich King. I've only kept half an eye on the lore while playing, and it was really good to get a bit more background on various characters and how situations in the current game came to be. I like some people a LOT more, some I understand a bit better, and a few I now dislike intensely ( Read more... )

media: general, lore: novels

Yeah, Lord of the Clans is the book to read for the lore surrounding Thrall. I have issues with some quirks in Golden's writing style, but she's not bad by any means. So, yeah, recommeded for reading.

I agree that Lord of the Clans is an awesome book. As far as WoW lore goes, it's probably one of my favorites so far!

Not a novel, per se but the World of Warcraft graphic novel has a lot of neat lore in it. Varian is in it as well. I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed it and the art style inside the book is fantastic. (The covers are very :\ )

You can find it on amazon or at any big book retailer.

Tides of Darkness was good, and Lord of the Clans was awesome.

As for Of Blood and Honor...well, it was okay. Not my favourite. There's only so many times I can read '..was resplendent in his silver armor, with eyes that shone with a vigour that belied his years' as a description for DIFFERERNT characters before I just start snickering.

I recommend Lord of the Clans and Rise of the Horde.
