Summary

THE AGE OF DRAGONS IS OVER.

Uncertainty plagues Azeroth’s ancient guardians as they struggle to find a new purpose. This dilemma has hit Kalecgos, youngest of the former Dragon Aspects, especially hard. Having lost his great powers, how can he - or any of his kind - still make a difference in the world?

The answer lies in the distant past, when savage beasts called proto-dragons ruled the skies. Through a mysterious artifact found near the heart of Northrend, Kalecgos witnesses this violent era and the shocking history of the original Aspects: Alexstrasza, Ysera, Malygos, Neltharion, and Nozdormu.

In their most primitive forms, the future protectors of Azeroth must stand united against Galakrond, a bloodthirsty creature that threatens the existence of their race. But did these mere proto-dragons face such a horrific adversary alone, or did an outside force help them? Were they given the strength they would become legendary for . . . or did they earn it with blood? Kalecgos’s discoveries will change everything he knows about the events that led to the...

Dragon problems

Brick gives another great performance but the substance of the book seems lacking, cuts between present day meddling Jaina and proto dragon olden days are not very well executed and the aspects we know and love have little screen time, just their older proto dragon selves. the dragon fights are okay and the story is consistent enough but there are better settings than Northrend and better warcraft stories about dragons.

Liked the story but it felt like a slog

Struggled Knaak's writing. Very repetitive wording that you notice after a couple of chapters

Great book

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and learning more about the well-known dragon aspects in Warcraft lore.
I think the story was told in a pretty interesting and unique manner compared to the other Warcraft novels I've read, and the story was quite easy to follow.

The narrator has a very pleasant reading voice and I hope he has narrated more Warcraft novels as I'd like to listen to more books narrated by him.

Great book if you love the lore

I both love and hate this book.
I love it cause it's a great story.
But I hate it because its made me love these characters so much I can't play cataclysm anymore cause I feel so sad at how their family ends.

You need to know some lore before enjoying

Good book but confusing for newcomers to warcraft. If you want to know more about the dragon lore, pick this book.
