World of Warcraft: Arthas, Rise of the Lich King
It is already 2009 and you have been playing World of Warcraft all these while with patience and all. What about giving yourself a nice little treat of a book? It is not just any book in the market but it is the book for World of Warcraft: Arthas, Rise of the Lich King.
The book will be released on April 29, 2009 so be sure to mark down the date to get yourself a copy of this story based on Wotlk.
BlizzPlanet already made an announcement to post the excerpt from the book and part of it goes like this:
The wind shrieked like a child in pain. The herd of shovel tusks huddled together for warmth—their thick, shaggy coats protecting them from the worst of the storm. They formed a circle with the calves, shivering and bleating, in the center. Their heads, crowned with massive antlers, dropped toward the snow-covered earth, eyes shut against the whirling snow. Their own breath frosted their muzzles as they planted themselves and endured.
I am sure this is interesting enough to get your attention. There is more to entice you:
In their various dens, the wolves and bears waited out the storm, one with the comfort of their pack, the other solitary and resigned. Whatever their hunger, nothing would drive them forth until after the keening wind had ceased its weeping and the blinding snow had worn itself out.
The wind, roaring in from the ocean to beat at the village of Kamagua, tore at the hides that stretched over frames made of the bones of great sea creatures. When the storm passed, the tuskarr, whose home this had been for years uncounted knew they would need to repair or replace nets and traps. Their dwellings, sturdy though they were, were always harmed when this storm descended. They had all gathered inside the large group dwelling that had been dug deep into the earth, lacing the flaps tight against the storm and lighting smoky oil lamps.
What do you think? Would you buy this novel? It is unusual to have a WOW novel but if you have been a die hard fan of Warcraft, there is no reason why you shouldn’t be getting a copy of this.
Who wrote the book?
Christie Golden has been known by fans of this franchise for her work on Lord of the Clans, Rise of the Horde and Beyond the Dark Portal.
Be sure to check out other collections as well if you are very much interested. Until then, don’t forget to keep playing and enjoying WOW. I am sure with a whole new year, there is more we can expect from Blizzard.
