Exploring Azeroth: Kalimdor: World of Warcraft By: Sean Copeland

In this second instalment of the Exploring Azeroth series, Blizzard historian Sean Copeland invites us to explore the continent of Kalimdor through the eyes of the legendary hunter Rexxar and the Horde ambassador Zekhan.

Together they embark on a perilous and revealing journey through the wilds, from the walls of Orgrimmar to the golden plains of Mulgore and Un'Goro Crater.

Along the way, the protagonists share knowledge, lore, gear, and landscapes that are at the heart of World of Warcraft history.

The book is illustrated with immersive art and offers new perspectives on iconic characters, mythical creatures, and iconic areas from the game.

Although the approach is more visual and descriptive than narrative, Copeland's style blends official documentation with Zekhan's subjective point of view, adding a personal and sometimes controversial touch.

Exploring Azeroth: The Eastern Kingdoms by Christie Golden (Book 1)

This book is a narrative journey through the Eastern Kingdoms of Azeroth, guided by two iconic characters: the master spy Mathias Shaw and the charming Captain Flynn Fairwind. Through letters, notes, illustrations, and personal commentary, the reader is immersed in an in-depth exploration of the most iconic lands in the World of Warcraft universe.


A journey through legendary zones:


Stormwind, Silvermoon, Blackrock Mountain, and Karazhan.


This entire exploration is carried out through historical tales and hidden secrets, including powerful artefacts, forgotten ruins, and curiosities that only the most attentive will recognise.


This book updates the lore following the Fourth War: the fall of the Undercity, the rebuilding of Stromgarde, the fate of Southshore, and the mystery of the tomb of Terenas Menethil. As well as Hogger's trousers preserved in the Dungeons, Khadgar's return to Karazhan, and the confirmation that the Scourge and the Blight are distinct threats.


The book blends Shaw's serious tone with Flynn's irreverent humour, creating an entertaining dynamic that brings every page to life. It's more than a guide: it's a love letter to the world millions of players have explored for decades.

The Doom of K'aresh by Adam Christopher

 Before the skies of Dalaran darkened, Alleria Windrunner sought the truth about a lost world—K’aresh, home of the brokers and ethereals. Through the voice of Locus-Walker, we’re taken into a haunting memory of a planet once brimming with arcane beauty. But that beauty masked a destructive force: relentless magic scorching the very souls it sought to protect.

As internal strife fractured the Ravel, and hope diminished in the shadow of Dimensius the All-Devouring, Locus-Walker faced a decision few could endure. His solution, controversial and isolating, marked the beginning of the end. This tragic tale, voiced by Ray Porter, sets the stage for the second major patch in World of Warcraft: The War Within, and reminds us of the cost of knowledge and power when worlds tremble beneath cosmic threats.
