Warcraft: War of the Ancients Trilogy is a book trilogy written by Richard A. Knaak set in Blizzard Entertainment's popular video game universe, Warcraft.
The first book in the series was given away as a promotion for pre-ordering World of Warcraft from Best Buy. The book was packaged in a standard PC game box. When the customer bought the pre-order box (and the included book) for $10, a copy of WoW was reserved and the $10 was applied toward its purchase.
The trilogy takes place ten millennia before the first Warcraft games, during the Burning Legion's first invasion of Azeroth.
[edit] Plot
Many months have passed since the cataclysmic Battle of Mount Hyjal, where the demonic Burning Legion was banished from Azeroth forever. But now, a mysterious energy rift within the mountains of Kalimdor propels three former warriors, the human wizard Rhonin, Krasus the dragon mage and a weathered orc veteran named Broxigar, into the distant past: a long time before orcs, humans or even high elves roamed the land. A time when the Dark Titan Sargeras and his demon pawns persuaded Queen Azshara and her Highborne to cleanse Azeroth of its lesser races. A time when the Dragon Aspects were at the height of their power, unaware that one of their own would soon usher in an age of darkness that would engulf Kalimdor. The Sundering is the Story of Illidan Stormrage and the Night Elves.
