About this listen
Though the young Warchief Thrall ended the demon curse that had plagued his people for generations, the orcs still wrestle with the sins of their bloody past. As the rampaging Horde, they waged a number of devastating wars against their perennial enemy - the Alliance. Yet the rage and bloodlust that drove the orcs to destroy everything in their path nearly consumed them as well. Long ago, on the idyllic world of Draenor, the noble orc clans lived in relative peace with their enigmatic neighbors, the draenei.
But the nefarious agents of the Burning Legion had other plans for both of the unsuspecting races. The demon-lord Kil’jaeden set in motion a dark chain of events that would succeed not only in eradicating the draenei, but would forge the orc clans into an single, unstoppable juggernaut of hatred and destruction. An original tale of magic, warfare, and heroism based on the best-selling, award-winning electronic game series from Blizzard.

Great story, performance is lacking.
Really enjoyed this story. Really felt like there were stakes in the story and no one feels safe (unless you have played the game and know what happens).
However the having big, burly Orcs sound like angsty pre-teens really takes away from the immersion. Can barely tell the difference between when it is character dialogue and when it's not. Most of the Orcs sound the same as each other, and the Draenei all sound the same as each other. Would have been a much better experience with a better narrator.

Story was good, reader not quite.
The author read this, which I hoped would lean towards a great experience , but Christie could not sell the angry or ferocious Orc. I felt I was listening to a story being read, and not caught up inside the story itself.
The story was good, just lacking the performance I’d gotten used to with Audible.

Extraordinary Story, Narration needs improvement
I'm not one to give bad feedback but in my honest opinion this was a hard one to get through,
Christie Golden your story was amazing, the narration however was very tough to stay focused on, I found it very monotone which followed through the entirety of the story, I caught myself getting easily distracted and missing large chunks of the story, then having to go back and listen to a chapter again.
It wasn't just the narration but the "Quality" of it, I have no idea what equipment was used to record this but there is a vast difference between this book and the previous one. It was hard to listen to this in headphones, as particular words ended in very sharp notes, I do not recommend headphones.
I do want to make it clear though, This is a fantastic story . Christie Golden did an amazing job, I just wish hearing her narration matched the emotions in her story.
