Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The aging orc shaman Ner'zhul has seized control of the Horde and reopened the Dark Portal. His brutal warriors once again encroach upon Azeroth, laying siege to the newly constructed stronghold of Nethergarde Keep. There, the archmage Khadgar and the Alliance commander, Turalyon, lead humanity and its elven and dwarven allies in fighting this new invasion.
Even so, disturbing questions arise. Khadgar learns of orcish incursions farther abroad: small groups of orcs who seem to pursue a goal other than simple conquest. Worse yet, grey dragons have been sighted as well, and they appear to be aiding the orcs. To counter Ner'zhul's dark schemes, the Alliance must now invade the orcs' ruined homeworld of Draenor. Can Khadgar and his companions stop the nefarious shaman in time to stave off the destruction of two worlds?

The Warcraft novels have been mostly of middling quality, and this does little to change that perception. It tries to squeeze in too many characters in too limited a space, and the reader has little time to form any emotional link with any. The book ties together events that lead to the reopening of the dark portal, and Burning Crusade players might get a treat to see numerous characters from the game in the book. Nonetheless, it's a plodding effort, even though both writers, who have written much better work, try to save the proceedings.

I have read the majority of the Warcraft books and I believe I like this one the least. There is practically no tension between Alliance and Horde. The entire book is pretty much one sided with no real retaliation from the Horde faction. It was pretty much just reading the how Alliance slaughtered the Horde in every way over and over again.

I have been playing WoW for a long while and am a huge fan of the whole setting. This book fits in really well into the WoW universe.
I highly recommend this to both serious WoW fans and newcomers alike
