Courtesy of Nazja over on SoL. It's like 150-ish pages long and covers some Zul'jin/troll stuff, the Scourge attack, Rommath's return, the Blood Knights' founding, Kael'thas's fall from grace, etc. Lady Liadrin seems to be the main PoV character.

I'd copy paste stuff but the spoilers are pretty detailed and ongoing. Worth a read.

Damn it, couldn't resist -.-

Still interesting read, I can hardly wait to read it myself

[Rhlor]

thank you very much

[Zaelsino]

I like the trivia. Solanar (Liadrin's second-in-command) and his brother (presumably Champion Bloodwrath) were able to take Anasterian's body and flee Quel'Danas after Arthas slew the king.

Veeeery sweeeeeet. My only problem is: this is like the fourth or fifth variation of the fall of silvermoon. Getting bloody annoying.

Anasterian was the best king!!!! very well by the Bloodwrath brothers

Yeah it seems to flesh out the conflicts of Quel'thalas and makes links to wow.

Though it seems to tie all versions together, completing the picture .

OFT

Why is it released in Germany though? I could buy and read it, but most likely I wouldn't be able to finish it, since they usually butcher the character names and it sounds all so awful in german, this is torture ;P

[Rhlor]

Liadrin is in love with Lor'themar??

Liadrin is verry cute!!!

[Combatbutler]

Honestly, I'm liking all of this save for Rommath's age. It feels so wrong to me to picture him as "young" in any sense of the word; he's been characterized as one of the older elves (him calling Aethas a "young upstart," anyone? x.x) for quite a while now.

Alleria fought in the troll wars, that was 2.800 years ago and still looks quite young, Aethas and Rommath might be over a millenium apart, who knows.

I think it's an early release; the English version doesn't even have a date yet AFAIK. Shame, since this sounds like a solid buy.

Liadrin is in love with Lor'themar??

Eh, I don't think it's that explicit, but maybe. I feel like it would've been touched upon by now if they wanted to go anywhere with it.

Yeah, who knows. Aethas could be barely older than Valeera I suppose.

The Anasterian part makes me sad. That guy was a boss.

Yeah if he had been in his prime, he would have most likely moped the floor with Arthas, pity really.

Veleera is about 20, that is a bit young, wouldn't you agree?^^

More blood elf lore? Absolutely ridiculous.

When is Blizzard going to realize that belves have enough flavour. Draenei and Gnomes technically deserve more lore than the overdone elves.

You do know this was written in BC but was finished too late and is being released now. It was the supposed to be the horde equivalent to Unbroken.

It doesn't matter. Blood Elves have way too much lore compared to the other races.

Its not like Gnomes and Draenei are mistakes and shouldnt exist at all.

Right?

[Deleted]

Thanks for posting this. I really felt bad for Sylvanas when they described her being forced to watch and only being able to cry.

Your opinion isn't exactly valid either.

Oh but it does.

about fucking time. only took them what 6 years?

[checking facts]

the hard part about adding gnome lore is that gnomes are funny and the alliance dislikes when funny stuff happen to them.

the hard part about adding draenei lore is that the entire reason for their existance is the burning legion, and it's been a while since we've dealt with them.

so they are just supposed to keep the novel they wrote before bc even came out and never release it? i dont think you understand what this is. this isnt a new book they are releasing this is a book they wrote years ago they never got around to releasing

races not getting enough attention shouldnt even be a talking point in this thread. this book was supposed to release in bc.
