Warcraft Day Of The Dragon Views
Review by General Pete for Day of the Dragon (WarCraft, Book 1) (No.1) Rating: Ith’s been 3 years since I played the game and when I saw it at the store I was a tade skeptical. However when I read it I remember why I used to play the mage its all here, from elves to orcs and from Paladins to Goblins. A totally enjoyable read.
Set after Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness but before Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, Day of the Dragon is the story of how a human Mage, Rhonin ventures into the last remaining Orc-controlled lands in Khaz Modan by the order of Krasus. Krasus is actually a red dragon named Korialstrasz, yet is disguised as a human mage of Dalaran during the earlier chapters of the book. He is loyal to his captured queen, Alexstrasza, Queen of the Red dragon flight and one of the five great Aspects. By using the Demon Soul , Nekros Skullcrusher, leader of the orcs in Khaz Modan, is able to hold Alexstrasza and her consorts, such as Tyranastrasz, against their will and use their offspring as pawns against the other races of Azeroth.
The Red Dragonflight have recovered since their imprisonment in Day of the Dragon, and in World of Warcraft are a strong presence in the Wyrmrest Accord, an alliance between dragons. Korialstraz sits beside Alexstraza in the accords's base of operations, the Wyrmrest Temple. Rhonin and Veressa Windrunner are also found in game, leaders of the kingdom of Dalaran in Northrend.
Last September 14th I bought two books from Booksale SM Mall of Asia branch. The first book is the 3d part of the Star Trek: Invasion series which begun in the days of The Original Series, then continued on The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine, which ended on the Gamma Quadrant with Voyager. The second book is Blizzard Entertainmente’s WarCraft Day of the Dragon.
