A review by readermonica
Warcraft: Durotan by Christie Golden

4.0

The narrator was excellent and I always enjoy Golden's writing. There was a discrepancy in the story though. If you have read Rise of the Horde, there is a story of Durotan and his best friend Orgrim being saved by a draeni hunting party, but in this one it is implied that Durotan's first interaction with draeni is as an adult. That point wasn't crucial to the story, so my nerd girl sensibilities were a bit agitated about it. If you haven't read any of the Warcraft stories and are looking for a starting place this would be a good one to pick up if you don't want too much backstory on the world of Draenor. If you really want a detailed beginning I HIGHLY recommend picking up Rise of the Horde if you can find it, or the anthology, Chronicles of War which has it as the first book. It's what got me hooked on this fantastic series. Full review to come.
