About this listen
That night, visions mocked Vol’jin. He found himself in the midst of fighters, each of whom he recognized. He’d gathered them for that final assault on Zalazane, to end his madness and free the Echo Isles for the Darkspears. Each of the combatants took on aspects of a jihui cube, faced to be at their maximum power. Not a fireship among them, but this did not surprise Vol’jin.
He was the fireship, but not yet turned to display his maximum power. This was not a fight, though desperate, in which he would destroy himself. Aided by Bwonsamdi, they would slay Zalazane and reclaim the Echo Isles.
Who be you, this troll, who be having memories of a heroic effort?
Vol’jin turned, hearing the click of a cube snapping to a new facing. He felt trapped inside that cube, translucent though it was, and shocked that it had no values on any face. “I be Vol’jin.”
Bwonsamdi materialized in a gray world of swirling mists. “And who be this Vol’jin?”
The question shook him. The Vol’jin of the vision had been the leader of the Darkspears, but was no longer. Reports of his death would just now be reaching the Horde. Perhaps they had not yet gotten there. In his heart, Vol’jin hoped his allies had been delayed, just so Garrosh could dwell one more day wondering if his plan had succeeded.
That did not answer the question. He was no longer the leader of the Darkspears, not in any real sense. They might still acknowledge him, but he could give them no orders. They would resist Garrosh and any Horde attempt to conquer them, but in his absence, they might listen to envoys who offered them protection. They could be lost to him.
Who do I be?
Vol’jin shivered. Though he thought himself superior to Tyrathan Khort, at least the man was mobile and not wearing sick-robes. The man hadn’t been betrayed by a rival and assassinated. The man had clearly embraced some of the pandaren way.
And yet, Tyrathan hesitated when he should not have. Some of it was a game to make the pandaren underestimate him, but Vol’jin had seen through that. The other bits, though, as he’d hesitated after Vol’jin complimented a move, those were genuine. And not something a man be allowing in himself.
Vol’jin looked up at Bwonsamdi. “I be Vol’jin. I know who I was. Who I gonna be? That answer only Vol’jin could be finding. And for now, Bwonsamdi, that be enough.”

Vol'jins life <3
Wonderful insight for Vol'jin's life!
Might be hard to understand everything in the books if you're not familiar with World of Warcraft.

best story of vol'jin
i found the story gripped me from the start i didnt want to stop listening to it with the twists and turns and the sheer elaboration of everything made my mind wonder into pandaria itself and getting to know the back story to Vol'jin and Chen Stormstout and how they met before the story or pandaria came into wow

Scott brick, WOW
It’s a real shame they haven’t used him for the rest of the Warcraft audiobooks, he simply brings them to life with his brilliant vocal performance. Fantastic story enriched by a great narrator.

better than I expected
I'll keep it short cause I'm at work
it made me think about many things in many different ways.
Also made me return to the game after being 100% set against ever returning.

Good narration, interesting story of Pandaria
Narrator was really impressive with the troll accents and all. Mostly listened to follow the whole Warcraft story, this part being not so interesting but it was good nonetheless.

A great story with interesting characters
I really enjoyed this WoW novel, it was full of tense action and charming conversation. My only issue was, in my opinion, that the narrator was a bit low energy.
It wasn't a huge issue but sometimes I would zone out and start thinking about something else... and it's a bad sign that an audiobook can't keep your attention when you're on a treadmill, staring at a wall! I'd be completely lost at times. Maybe that's more my fault but his voice is definitely... too dramatic and slow.
I'd still recommend this book for any fantasy or Warcraft fans.

Nice
Great individual voice impersonation. Very well written characters development, although I expected more than just a sudden death for Khalak.

good read
It was a good book, the narrator made every one sound familiar but you could sort out the voices after a while.
