À propos de cet audio

An official prequel novel to World of Warcraft: Midnight

Arator the Redeemer was born to heroism. The son of High Exarch Turalyon and the legendary Alleria Windrunner, Arator has long borne the weight and expectations of their legacy . . . a legacy he inherited as a babe, the day his parents disappeared through the Dark Portal.

Alleria and Turalyon’s journey took them farther afield than they’d intended. While their absence spanned mere decades on Azeroth, the heroes experienced a thousand years at war against the Burning Legion—a demonic army seeking the destruction of all worlds. When at last they reunited with their son, Arator was a man grown, pledged to the very order of paladins for which they had once fought. The Legion fell quickly in a decisive final battle, yet the millennium of distance between the family was less easily conquered.

Now, on the other side of recent events in Khaz Algar, Arator embarks on a new journey, investigating rumors of a strange glow emanating from the ruins of a long-abandoned Legion base. Turalyon and Alleria volunteer to assist, eager to eliminate their ancient enemy before it can threaten their world anew. As the family delves further into the mystery, Arator works to reconcile his parents’ heroic legacy with the flawed people he has come to know. He sees both of his parents in himself: his father’s high standards, his mother’s intellect, their unwavering commitment to the defense of Azeroth. But Arator exists at the conflux of their greatest strengths and weaknesses—weaknesses that are revealed as the demonic threat proves to be a former lieutenant of the Burning Legion, intent on using Azeroth to launch a new campaign of destruction.

I admit I'm about halfway through the book but it's a slog. There's so much unnecessary boring banter between the characters. It just takes away from any sort of action (which is very lacking). The book opened with an interesting premise but that's gone. Aleria and Turalyon's conversations often become repetitive. No spoilers but the page after page 'surprise twist' you can see miles away and it has zero pay off because by this point you've rolled your eyes. Bummer.

The voice actor wasn't prepped on how to pronounce any of the Warcraft locations/terms, and he also seems like he has a sore throat at times? His voice gets phlegmy at some parts, and is not the most emotive VA.

I liked Golden's Sylvanas book, but even there, there was so much 'playful' banter between characters it's repetitive and distracting. Not sure if I'll finish it. Sorry.

A moderatly interesting story before Midnight.

I generally really enjoy Warcraft books, and love Christie Golden's writing.

This book had a very strong start which had me excited but quickly became a slog. The action parts are few and far between, and it's core focus is characters that I personally find rather disinteresting talking - a lot. It's the first Warcraft book I've contemplated not finishing.

I really loved the antagonist and the side characters, they just didn't get much 'screentime'. Which is disappointing, because if there was more focus on them the book could have been much more exciting. I think I'll re-listen to it in the future and just skip the chatty bits - which is hours worth.

Slog

The plot consists of a bunch of random short scenarios that don't go anywhere. Most of the book consists of characters sitting or standing around talking. Too much focus on the romance between Turalyon and Alleria. Their relationship is about as dry as you expect from two characters like them. You don't miss anything of importance if you skip this book. I'm usually a fan of Golden's books, but this just didn't need to be written.

A Whole Lot of Nothing

I really enjoyed this story. Been playing WoW since vanilla and have always been a lore nut. I've always enjoyed the Christie Golden books and this one was good. Makes me excited for what's to come.

Very nice prelude to Midnight
