About this listen
Azeroth is dying.
The Horde and the Alliance defeated the demonic Burning Legion, but a dire catastrophe is unfolding deep below the surface of the world. There is a mortal wound in the heart of Azeroth, struck by the sword of the fallen titan Sargeras in a final act of cruelty.
For Anduin Wrynn, king of Stormwind, and Sylvanas Windrunner, warchief of the Horde and queen of the Forsaken, there is little time to rebuild what remains and even less to mourn what was lost. Azeroth's devastating wound has revealed a mysterious material known as Azerite. In the right hands, this strange golden substance is capable of incredible feats of creation; in the wrong ones, it could bring forth unthinkable destruction.
As Alliance and Horde forces race to uncover the secrets of Azerite and heal the wounded world, Anduin enacts a desperate plan aimed at forging a lasting peace between the factions. Azerite jeopardizes the balance of power, and so Anduin must gain the trust of Sylvanas. But, as ever, the Dark Lady has her own machinations.
For peace to be possible, generations of bloodshed and hatred must be brought to an end. But there are truths that neither side is willing to accept and ambitions they are loath to relinquish. As Alliance and Horde alike grasp for the Azerite's power, their simmering conflict threatens to reignite all-out war - a war that would spell doom for Azeroth.

Pleasantly surprised
Played WoW since 2004 and this was my first ever written story. Christie is almost (almost) Ann Rice-esque in the descriptive and emotional nature of her story telling and I found myself genuinely moved (sometimes to tears) by the most surprising narratives. It's not necessary to have been a fan of the World from the start, but you will be well rewarded if you are.

great story
as a player of the game this story was a great bridge between events that have transpired ingame. the narrator was captivating, the emotion he put fourth at times combined with the writing had me ugly crying in certain areas. a great listener for any warcraft fan.

fantastic story. really great fun and perfect
Really well done. Very well voiced and entertaining. Excellent story, such a good bridge and insight to the revelations in game, or for a good "in the feels" read if you don't play and do like high fantasy.
