I walked into Barnes and Nobel the other day and dropped ~$100 on WoW books.
I started with the "Sunwell Trilogy" manga and was simply dissapointed. Seemed to be written for the youngesters or something. It lacked substance and was REALLY corny.
Hoping for something better, I picked up "Rise of the Horde". I didn't put it down.
After playing all the WC series, it was INCREDIBLY cool to have the backstory described in such detail.
I have A LOT of reading to do. But after the first novel I am excited of what else there is to come.
A series of movies could come from this.
Along with the obvious WoW fan-base, I am certain a large number of the general public would come to see it out of curiosity.
As a WC fan It really bothered me how Orcs were shown in the LOTR series. They looked frail and dumb. I'd love to see a movie where Ogrim smashes some skulls with the Doomhammer.....
Call me a nerd. But this stuff is good.
