About this listen

The book World of Warcraft fans have been clamoring for - the true story behind one of the Warcraft universe’s most terrifying villains, Arthas the Lich King.

Author Christie Golden does for Arthas what she once did for the Orc Lord Thrall in the best-selling Warcraft: Lord of the Clans, in another epic exploration of one of the key characters from the 11-million subscriber massively multiplayer online role-playing game.

highly recommended

having played the warcraft games it was great to hear a more in depth story about the rise of the litch king.

only downside is that the audio wasnt quite loud enough and i had a hard time hearing some pieces while i drove at higher speeds.

Good.

great book, arthas mental battle with himself was a great progression. You dont need to start these books chronologically, but you'll want more afterwards, be prepared.

From start to finish I was engrossed in the lore - bei g a world of Warcraft player it was amazing to go deep into the lore.
I found myself excited to travel to my next destination just so I could continue the story.
