Now that the expansion is revealed I understand why the title is called before the storm. This whole time I was thinking it meant a huge storm would revamp Azeroth but it actually meat before the horde/alliance war!Comment by hallayoyoi need this bookComment by kaldrissi cant wait to read thisComment by GianavelI actually want to read this one.Comment by FWY101Yay Blizzcon!Comment by AsaNoHikariI wish Blizzard did more storytelling in-game instead of resorting to books to fill the gaping holes in their lore.Comment by jjanchanI'll have to look at the whole chronology of the Warcraft books...maybe start at the beginning and read them all the way through! It might be quite the marathon, but worth it!Comment by EragenaCoolComment by Myxx66dont like the cover. just looks to .. off.Comment by albinoetteAnduin is aging faster than all the rest of Azeroth.Comment by RafteInteresting cover, Anduin seems to be growing in confidence. He needs a few wins in this as he is very untested as a king.Comment by zoraaislingI'm an Alliance player, but Sylvanas is definitely my homegirl. She's awesome! I loved her banshee attack in the cinematicComment by Tueftlermeh looks offComment by natyarafdnI want thisssssComment by notoriousblazecan't wait to read it.Comment by lovs2buildI would love to see a ALL CGI movie come out on Before the Storm.
