War Of The ancients
Brilliant book, full of amazing and colourful characters really brought to life. answers many questions you may have if you play the online game (which is also exelent)however if you do not play the game it is still a great read if you are into epic adventure and fantasy, this book is a great escape from reality.
Fantastic Conclusion.
This book brings together and concludes various plots developed in the previous two books of the trilogy. The writer sticks to the actual events of the warcraft universe and fills in a lot of the gaps left in the series of PC games. Overall it is an exciting finale with many gripping moments of battle and moments of subdued emotion as the fates of the main characters are finally revealed as they battle to keep at bay the burning legion, the mad dragon Neltharion and something much worse! All in all a great book.
Not very good
This book is obviously meant to be the climax of an 'epic' quest filled with battles, battles, and more battles.
There goes no chapter in which some kind of battle is beign fought and though this might be exciting and lacking in some books, the sheer number of battles that happen time and time again tends to become a little tedious. You tend to greet the new chapter with a sigh and a roll of the eyes when someone draws a sword or a mob of angry baddies coming running over the horizon.
Perhaps with a little depth and work added into making you care for the characters (or even the story) then perhaps this could be a good book.
