I disagree Shadows rising had the issue of spending to much time on characters romance. Between Talanji/zekahn , Tirion/Alleria, Anduin/Jaina(motherly relationship), Sylvanas/Nathanos and Flynn/shaw. There was very little actual substance in the actual book. Sure there are some decent moments but they are generally short stories compared to the pages that was dedicated to characters having fantasy’s about one another, describing each other or having “tender” moments.
If they do another book I really hope they take a real big step back on the romance angle. Besides of the copious amounts of romance I did enjoy the other parts of Roux had written.
