Product Description

Product Description
A new race has risen in the World of Warcraft, one with power and ambition to protect its allies, lay waste to its enemies, and change the face of the land forever. But are they the means of salvation, or a dire threat to the precarious balance of power? Now orcs and humans are set against each other, unless they can set their differences aside and penetrate the mystery of the new race.

4.0 out of 5 stars Root for the Horde in this tale from the World of Warcraft, 13 Dec 2007
I've always been a big fan of the World of Warcraft game where I play a level 60 Alliance Mage fighting the Horde. So, I was pleasantly surprised with this story that describes their rise - and fall - in a well crafted story that sets the scene for many familiar locations and characters within the game.

Those of you who have purchased The Burning Crusade expansion will also find a wealth of information on the origin of the Draenei race and the building of the Dark Portal, all tightly woven into a well written storyline. Those of you who play the Horde in the game will also find a great deal of information on many, key Horde characters including Durotan and Doomhammer.

Overall, a well told story that is in keeping with the warcraft theme that will keep you entertained and add to the colour of your online gameplay.

For the Horde! (oops I meant the Alliance!)

4.0 out of 5 stars A refreshing Warcraft read, 30 May 2007
Ever since the release of 'Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos', I've been a fan of the series of games. They have a great plot and a well thought-out world. I've read all the Warcraft novels that have been released up until now and I have to say this is one of the better. The story is interesting and ties in to the one in the games almost perfectly. Finally we know the story of the orcs on their homeworld Draenor. One problem I had with the novel was with the character Ner'zhul. He was always represented as a person with evil ambitions who converted the orcs to his cause. In this novel however he seems rather reluctant with what's happening. In conclusion, it's a good read, but only if you're a Warcraft fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, 30 May 2008
This was a great read and leaves you with a wealth of background knowledge on the horde and Draenei!
You learn loads about: Durotan, Ogrim Doomhammer, Velen, Kil'jaeden, The Naaru, Ner'zhul, Guldan, Archimonde, Sargeras, Blackhand, Drek'Thar, Grom Hellscream, Blood Lust, Draenor -Hellfire Peninsula/Terrokar/Nagrand.

The book tells you everything you need to know about the corruption of the Eredar and the escape of Velen and the Draenei, it also tells of the Orcs heritage and tradition and their unification and corruption leading to them waging war on the Draenia and the opening of the Dark Portal.
I found the background to the Draenei's tale particulaty interesting!
An excellent read!

Make sure you follow it up with 'Lord of The Clans' also by Christie Golden, as the tale continues.
