Whatever you do, don’t save your money and find free versions of all their stuff online. Because paying full price for all of it is so worth it.

Nice Art book

Wei Wang will be my favorite artist from the WoW team.

He is responsible for a lot of iconic WoW pieces.

Obligatory Draenei piece:

I really enjoyed Rise of the Horde. I thought it added depth to Orcs that makes the Orcs vs. Human storyline more interesting.

I also recommend the Arthas book to anyone that hasn’t played Warcraft 3 and The Frozen Throne, and isn’t interested in playing through the WC3 Reforged storyline. It’s still entertaining if you have, but recovers a lot of material that’s in WC3 and Frozen Throne.

I was not a fan of the Illidan book or Dawn of the Aspects. They were entertaining, but weren’t as compelling or interesting to me for background lore than Before the Storm, Wolfheart, or Tides of War.

Rise of the Horde was more about the internal politics of the clans of Draenor and the Draenei. Through the Dark Portal and Lord of the Clans was more about the human vs Horde conflict.

Unless I’m remembering incorrectly

I really wish they’d make a Kindle version of Grimoire.

Absolutely, but it explains why the Orcs became green killing machines. They weren’t born that way. I think that gives them more depth as adversaries to the humans than the “ugly green invader bad guys that want to burn everything down” trope. If you only played WC2 and WC3 (like me), the only depth you get to the orcs is Thrall and him helping Cairne and Vol’jin. Prior to drinking Manoroth’s blood, the Draenor orcs were much more complicated and interesting.

Ah I see what you mean. Yeah, it does a good job of reflecting who they were prior to the invasion.
