War of the ancients trilogy ebook download

This is a must read for any fan of Warcraft, or fantasy in general! Feb 17, Jared rated it it was amazing Shelves: warcraft. As a fan of not only the Warcraft novels but also Richard A.

Knaak some may think my opinion biased. However these three books have both their ups and downs. The first book was amazing I loved the storyline and it really set the stage well for the books that would follow.

Being a fan of Horde I very much enjoyed reading about Broxigar Brox. The second book was as many middle books in trilogies in my opinion.

I dislike most trilogies because the second book is normally nowhere near as good as t As a fan of not only the Warcraft novels but also Richard A. I dislike most trilogies because the second book is normally nowhere near as good as the first or second. Its kind of a stagnant point in the story. The third book while not as good as the first is still very well written.

I have fallen in love with Korialstraz Krasus because he has no specific charecter and can be used in any story which Richard A.

Knaak does a very good job of doing. I would recommend this to anyone who does not have a weak stomach as there are some pretty gory chapters. Mar 02, Allie rated it it was amazing. I'm a World of Warcraft lore enthusiest, and I particularly enjoy the storyline behind the Night Elves and Dragon Aspects - so needless to say, this book was much anticipated. I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of the book - from the orcs sent back into ancient Kalimdor, to the kingdom of the Night Elves, to the far reaches where the Dragons resided.

It was a blast getting to see the story unfold with names and faces you recognized from the games ie.

The stories were both empowering and heart-breaking, and really kept me engaged. It's a great look into a large chunk of WoW's storyline and how events resulted in how we now see them. Also, a very engaging read for folks who are unfamiliar with World of Warcraft. I found an outside reader could still enjoy the adventerous storyline and characters.

I would like to have seen a map because I was confused about whether or not the world has changed yet by the cataclysm, where is the sunwell the one place I know where it is in Isle of Quel'Danas?

It sounds like it is in Azshara. I believe that this came before World of Warcraft and befor Warcraft 2.

I have played World of Warcraft on the computer and have seen or killed some of the characters that are in the book. I would recommend this book to people who like Blizzard Entertainment. Who have also made Diablo, Starcraft, and Hearthstone and coming out with a movie in !

Jul 07, Endora rated it it was amazing Shelves: fantasy , videogame-novels. I liked this book not only because I played the games and read the history, but I enjoyed the characters reactions to the turmoil and danger that plagued their homeland and loved ones.

It was well written. Another reason is that I enjoy the heroes of the book because they had intriguing stories behind them ingame and outgame. My favorite characters are Tyrande, Krasus, and Alexstrasza Jun 12, Chris Tucker rated it it was amazing.

Awesome book that not only explains Illidian's fall, but also sets up the events for the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion. Knaak is not your typical fantasy writer that seems too absorbed in the scene to flesh out the characters and I enjoy that. Although playing or having played World of Warcraft is helpful the setting of the story is far back enough that you do not have to be a fan to understand all that is going on.

This story is really set at the beginning. Overall a fun book and great st Awesome book that not only explains Illidian's fall, but also sets up the events for the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion. Overall a fun book and great story.

Oh i really like this cover expectually Tyrande Whisperwind the girl. Jun 14, TL Jeffcoat rated it it was amazing Shelves: favorite-books , reviewed , fantasy , epic. This was by far the best of all the books written for the Warcraft series. I absolutely loved it. The history of and origins of some of the biggest movers and shakers of the world setting was fun and exciting.

Not to mention two of the biggest and most powerful villains of the warcraft universe on the same stage. Deathwing and Archimonde. Azeroth never stood a chance. If you read any of the Warcraft books, these are the ones to read. Apr 29, Kimberly rated it it was amazing.

What an amazing book! I am a huge fan of World of Warcraft so when I saw this book I snatched it up! And boy am I glad I did! Knaak recreates the world of Azeroth in stunning detail.

I loved reading about the events that transpired in the past. If you are a fan of Warcraft in any shape or form, you have got to read this! Jun 18, Kelsey Low rated it it was amazing. I really enjoyed these books. I enjoy reading about the Warcraft lore a lot, and it's not something that is easy to get while playing the World of Warcraft MMO, since like most MMOs of the day you just click on quests and never really know why you're killing this or collecting that.

It's always good to know the stories of the major NPCs of the game. Jul 30, Preston rated it it was amazing Shelves: warcraft. The best Knaak has to offer the Warcraft series. These books not only clarify the history of Warcraft but they also help personify the individuals inherent.

Worth reading if you know someone that has a copy. Aug 03, Kevin Teynor rated it it was amazing Shelves: fantasy. Sep 09, Marc Henderson rated it it was amazing Shelves: wow. Great read for wow fans who want to really loose themselves in a good book.

Mar 12, Melody rated it it was amazing. Almost done! This book is amazing, Knaak is awesome! Oct 03, Roxana Suflet rated it liked it. The trilogy is overall great especially if you are familiar with the Warcraft Universe. I always loved Tyrande's character and I particularly enjoyed following her evolution.

I like the overall story, it touches on matters of politics, corruption, faith, destiny, preservation of nature, tolerance of other cultures. I wish the writing style was more focused on the social conflicts happening within the story - as there are many - and the inner turmoil of the characters and less preoccupied with th The trilogy is overall great especially if you are familiar with the Warcraft Universe.

I wish the writing style was more focused on the social conflicts happening within the story - as there are many - and the inner turmoil of the characters and less preoccupied with the description of how the characters would cast a spell or how the spell would look or how much it would destroy its targets. Those types of effects have their own importance, but in my opinion they should be only briefly mentioned so as not to disrupt the reader's experience of the overall battle or the characters' thoughts and feelings.

I'd give it 4. Jun 13, Aaron rated it it was amazing. This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. It has been more than a year since I read War of the Ancients however, this book will always be the best Warcraft book for me.

Although the pacing is a little slow, the climax was worth it. I would like to briefly mention the main points of this book. Firstly, this book takes place during the first invasion of the Burning Legion whereby the High Borne also known as the Night Elfs led by Queen Azshara, used the Well of Eternity to bring forth the burning legion.

However, it was stopped by Malfurio It has been more than a year since I read War of the Ancients however, this book will always be the best Warcraft book for me. However, it was stopped by Malfurion, Tyrande and Illidan in the end. I am glad that they address this aspect of Warcraft lore in this book and I really enjoyed reading it although it took me quite a few to finish it. Mar 11, Freezard rated it it was amazing.

Since it consists of three novels, it's a long read and it can drag out at times. Looking back at it though, I think this trilogy captures the essence of WarCraft and its fantasy extremely well.

It's rich of lore and is a good entry point if you're new to the world, or if you want the origin stories of some of the iconic characters such as Malfurion, Tyrande, and Illidan. But I found pretty much every character interesting including ones I didn't really know anything about like Krasus, Rhonin, B Since it consists of three novels, it's a long read and it can drag out at times.
