Episode #2 : The Rise of the Horde! The World of Warcraft book club podcast discusses Christie Golden’s 2006 novel, published one month before the The Burning Crusade was released. This highly anticipated book set the tone for what players could expect before the launch of Burning Crusade, presents the evolution of orc shaman into shadow-magic wielding warlocks, and proved to be the perfect backstory for what danger lay ahead for all of Azeroth. Apsana, Skolnick, Kevin, and Emma gather by the cozy fire for a thoughtful conversation regarding many of the themes expressed in Rise of the Horde. Later, the next Warcraft book club reading selection is unveiled for February: Well of Eternity by Richard A. Knaak.
