The Well of Eternity (WarCraft: War of the Ancients, Book 1) [Posted on 2007-05-12]
It's the first warcraft book i read and its one of the best things i read(of course u have to like warcraft 1st XD)so i would recommend if u buy this book buy book 2 and 3 cuz you'll curse yourself when u get to the end of the first one :) good luck ppl

Excellent reading complelling story line!!! [Posted on 2007-06-08]
As usual all fantasy books begin with a bland fisrt chapter however after this point the story really takes off. I finished this book in record time considering im not usually an avid reader.

If you are a fan of warcraft lore and want to know the background to the evolving characters of the warcraft universe. I suggest starting with this book. I tuned page after page night after night, great work by Knakk

5/5

I don't get it  [Posted on 2007-06-18]
Ok, I have to admit it as much as I wanted to like this book considering the rave reviews I had heard and read hear on Amazon I did not like the story. I don't know if I just wasn't in the right mood or what. The quality of the writing is still there and that is usually enough for me but not this time. Can we break some new ground here or tell some new stories instead of telling an alternate version of a story that all diehard Warcraft people know? This probably has something to do with the fact that this book was written by the same guy who wrote Day of the Dragon a book I liked at first but didn't like quite so much on subsequent rereads.

Overall-Read it if you are a dragon fan who wants to be confused about the overall war craft timeline. There was also a time when I would buy the rest of the trilogy and make an attempt to read the books out of loyalty to the franchise that is not going to happen with there books.

Great Start [Posted on 2007-08-09]
THis book is the first of a trilogy. I highly recommend that if you read this book, you commit to reading the other two. This gives an excellent historical view of how the World of Warcraft evolved over time and how relationships developed, both good and bad.

Under-rated Trilogy [Posted on 2008-08-18]
I am by all means not an "avid" reader but I must say that this is one of the best trilogies I have ever read. I am deployed right now and being a hardcore WoW player, I do not get to play the game out here, so the books very much compensate that.

Reading the first 5 pages will get you hooked! Richard A. Knaak just delivers from start to finish. The characters are very unique and the way he describes the personality and the relationships between the characters is phenominal. I am very suprised to read that Richad A. Knaak steered in more of a Mature theme with this book, even describing in great detail how someone and/or how something died. Because you really don't see that much gore in the game.

This series will have you hooked and will make you not want to put down the book until it's finished. It also answer questions like: How did Illidan become evil? Who is Rhonin? What were the great Dragons or "Aspects" like? What happened during the first "World War"? How did "Deathwing" come to be? Read the trilogy and it will answer all of your questions, and to top it off you will have more of a respect to the Warcraft storyline and appreciate the game alot more. Also you can visit some the characters in game!!!! Buy the whole Trilogy. You will not be dissapointed!
