Each of the flights' leaders was imbued with a portion of the titans' vast cosmic powers. Together, these majestic Dragon Aspects committed themselves to thwarting any force that threatened the safety of the WORLD OF WARCRAFT. Over ten thousand years ago, a betra...more

Golden is the only author allowed to write in the World of Warcraft franchise, as she has respect for the characters, the Lore, and the fans.

In this book, we see why Deathwing is such a threat to all of Azeroth, and why Thrall stepping down as Warchief was a good thing.

Thrall has always been one of the best character in the Warcraft universe, and Golden further develops the Orc into his new role as Shaman within the Eathen Ring. Along the way, he exorcises his demons, unites the Dragonflights,...more

Thrall could not concentrate on his task beside his shaman friends in Maelstrom, so accepted Ysera's offer to find Nozdormu, the timeless Bronze dragon, and then tried to calm down alexstrasza, the life binder after loss of Kerasus, assuming his betrayal, and also help Blue dragons to replace their aspect (Malygos died in battle with other dragons, because he went crazy and decided to kill all alive being) and finally unite all dragon-flights against the twilight dragons and win the war.

One thing I do like best from Knaak's novels though is Korialstrasz. And the way his death is handled in this book is a major, major problem for me. As much as I liked the book, thinking about Krasus has spoiled the story so much that I almost wish I hadn't read it, or had read it knowing...more

As with every other WOW book, I enjoyed it because I love the world and characters. The writing itself is only OK. Golden's strength is in the characters and their relationships. She creates some very emotional moments in this book, which makes the whole experience worthwhile. Her pacing felt good –I finished the book in a single day so obviously it drew me in. There weren't a lot of surprises, but I was entertained.

Thrall Twilight Of The Aspects by Christie Golden

This is another World of Warcraft novels. This time Thrall the Orc is questing for the lands of Azeroth and specifically for the green Dragon Aspect, Ysera.

Somehow I think books should come first and then the game but in the real world to get young boys to read you do what you can. If this series encourages boys to read then it is well worth the effort.

Christie Golden proves again her mastery of solid Warcraft storytelling. While the novel is short and sparse, it feels good to once again wander across the face of Azeroth with Thrall, former warchief of the Horde and now a shaman seeking to heal the world's wounds suffered during the Cataclysm.

I cannot recommend this novel to anyone unfamiliar with Warcraft lore. Where one of Thrall's previous headlining novels, Lord of the Clans, could be enjoyed by anyone not familiar with Warcraft, this nov...more

I knew about most of the locations that were in the book (particularly Wyrmrest Temple), so it was kind of fun to see it through the eyes of some of the major NPCs of Azeroth.

The book started out fairly interesting despite some weak writing in parts, and I enjoyed the slow set-up of some of the antagonists. Then, about half-way through the book it became stale and the antagonists started behaving like children's cartoon villains. Arygos was especially disappointing after his initial introduction and interaction with Alexstrasza and Kalecgos. He seemed a competent, capable villain who turned into such a simpering wimp the moment he was in the same room as the Twilight Father who I've been told he's been around for months. Why would a dragon who is strongly of the belief that the mortal races of Azeroth are so much dirt under his feet be bowing low to a human? At least Chromatus recognized the Twilight Father was not the true leader, that it's Deathwing he and everyone else should really fear.

Speaking of the Twilight Father, he too suffers from at first appearing frightening and a definite threat to being, well, I can't believe we're scared of the Twilight Hammer in this book at all. If I hadn't been playing the game and know how vast their reach is (to the extent there's been hints they're in some pretty lofty positions of power within both the Horde and Alliance), I'd be unable to even remotely believe there was any necessity for Thrall's help at all. As it stands, Thrall winds up becoming a Gary Stu, which I suppose you can't really help in this case because he is the former Warchief of the Horde, and an awesome one at that. Still, it was hard for me to swallow the four remaining Aspects (the blues receive a new Aspect) nearly bowing down to the orc as much as they did. I get it, they're the good guys, but they're also Aspects and a little snootiness might not be out of place.

If you like the game or know the lore, you might enjoy this book, but I couldn't recommend it to anyone unfamiliar with either.(less)

Christie Golden never fails to impress me.

I used to play World of Warcraft religiously and still dabble with the game occasionally but more or less for the story. That is the sole reason I have not cut ties with the World of Warcraft because I love its lore. So whenever I can get my hands on a new book that continues its story I'm all over it. "Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects" is a book worthy of praise and stays true to the fans of the game.

I generally avoid tie-in books, finding them shallow and unsatisfying. I've made an exception for World of Warcraft novels because the game's lore really is quite textured and easily supports the few novels that have been written.
This was not Golden's best novel. I enjoyed both Lord of the Clans and The Shattering more. It was, however, a satisfying continuation of her exploration of the character Thrall, orc shaman and former Warchief of the Horde.

Christie Golden is an extremely talented fantasy author. In this installment of World of Warcraft supplements, we are on the journey of one of Azeroth's most iconic characters, Thrall. As a character that is rich in lore, this book was an integral part of the Cataclysm and the events that followed her book, The Shattering.

Unlike so many of her other books, I found that this was incredibly slow paced and wasn't as gripping as I know that it could have been. This was due in part because of the st...more

Bleh. I don't like Thrall, and reading these books makes me dislike him even more. A shallow self-absorbed whiny flake is what I've taken from reading these books. As someone who plays the game, it is fun to actually read the "official" version, although the writing is a little trite.

Sometimes I wonder how these World of Warcraft books would hold up if I wasn't already so invested in the lore due to playing the game so much. The story is a bit contrived at times, but that's easy to overlook when you enjoy learning more about what is going on in the world where your game character lives.

It's no secret that Chris Metzen is in love with Thrall, and this entire expansion is basically "Thrall's Time to Shine"... so of course he's going to be very prominent in the books dealing wi...more

Just as I was unimpressed by the writing in The Shattering: Prelude to Cataclysm, I continue to find Golden's writing juvenile and, in many places, just plain bad. I fail to understand why so many fans prefer her WarCraft novels over Knaak, and it pains me to know that authors are becoming "New York Times Bestsellers" on the skirt tails of media tie-ins. The characters seemed to lack the depth I know they have, and I felt as though Thrall's dialogue was out of character many times.

I also think that Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects fit awkwardly into the timing already in place within the game. We know it must happen before Patch 4.2 because of the appearance of (view spoiler) at Nordrassil with Alexstrasza, Ysera and (view spoiler). But it seems as though some events have happened in both the novel and the patch 4.2 content, more thoughts between the spoiler tags.

I'm sure Blizzard has some reason why it all works out the way it does in the timeline, but it just didn't seem to add up as well as The Shattering did.(less)

This is a World of Warcraft book, so I wrote this review assuming that you have some knowledge of Azeroth and the general timeline of the Cataclysm expansion. If you don’t, this book is probably not for you, but the earlier WoW books may help you to catch up.

After the Shattering of Azeroth by the evil dragon Deathwing, the elements are in turmoil. A group of Earthen Ring Shaman, Thrall among them, are at the Maelstrom trying to calm the raging elements and prevent the fabric of Azeroth from being ripped apart.

Elsewhere, after a horrific attack on the dragons while they are meeting at Wyrmrest Temple, the dragon flights are all but defeated and the Aspects are scattered. Malygos has been slain so the blue dragons are without a leader. Alexstrasza is devastated by the loss of her mate and brood, Ysera the Awakened is still unsure what is reality and what is a dream, and the bronze aspect Nozdormu is missing in the timeways. Ysera requests Thrall’s aid to bring the flights back together and unite them against the Twilight Cult and dragons that are threatening the frozen north and the whole of Azeroth.

The timeline of the events in this book as they relate to the Cataclysm expansion itself is not explained all that well in my opinion, but from what I can tell the events take place after Deathwing’s arrival, but before the Bastion of Twilight has been faced. Some of the events that take place are reminiscent of the Hour of Twilight heroic dungeons introduced to the game at the same time as the final battle against Deathwing, but by the end of this book the “Hour of Twilight” has not yet arrived. It doesn’t seem to quite tie in with events as they are in WoW, especially with the Elemental Bonds quest chain involving Thrall and Aggra that was introduced with the Firelands patch.

Overall, there is a lot of Lore crammed into this short-ish book. Such an epic tale feels slightly rushed and lacks the detail that could have made this story truly amazing. In addition, I don’t really like Christie Golden’s storytelling style. It’s very grandiose, and while that is fine for the discussion of world-changing events, doesn’t make the characters very relatable. She also uses “Too,” at the start of sentences. I have no idea if that’s grammatically correct or not but it looked all kinds of wrong to my (un-trained) eye!

Grammar and continuity quibbles aside, I enjoyed reading about Thrall’s journey around Azeroth in his quest to help the Aspects and, ultimately, to save the world. I loved reading about the characters and places I’ve been visiting in-game for several years. There are also some very emotional events and some exciting battle scenes that really bring the plight of the dragon flights to life.

I’d recommend this one to any Warcraft Lore-nerds who could like to know more about the dragon flights and the events just after Deathwing’s return.(less)

The big thing I have loved about the game is the lore and that’s why I go out of my way to read all the books published in this series. I play strictly on the side of the Horde and so I have a definite dislike of the Alliance, but I try to look at the books with a nonjudgmental view in regards to the two factions though my reviews may mention a dislike of this certain character or faction from time to time. I do try to not let my dislike of the Alliance from affecting the rating and review of the books as much as I can.

I had been so excited when I found this book back when it first came out. Thrall has always been one of my favorite Horde leaders, with Lady Sylvanas and Cairne Bloodhoof being the other two I absolutely loved. So to find another book that focused on this character was a great thing. Not to mention the fact that it was written by Christie Golden, who also wrote Arthas: Rise of the Lich King and The Shattering: Prelude to Cataclysm, both books I fully enjoyed and have read more than a few times.

Sadly though my excitement was quite quickly dashed with this. Thrall was a weak character right from the start. Sure he is no longer Warchief of the Horde, something a lot of people agree on as being a bad decision, especially since it meant Garrosh Hellscream now leaders the faction, but I didn’t expect his character to be so broken. This was not the Thrall I have come to love over the years and it disappointed me completely. But I told myself that it would get better, for surely his character would rise to the occasion and show himself to once again be the strong Orc everyone knows his to be. In a way he did, but even so it just didn’t feel right.

Now the book wasn’t all terrible. There were a few portions of it that I did enjoy, however they were so minimal compared to everything else that I didn’t feel they made up for the overall bad feeling the rest of the book gave me. I think the big issue for me, outside of Thrall character seeming so weak, constantly second guessing himself, seeming lost no matter what he did, was that he also was the solution to everything. That just seemed like poor writing to me. I get it, it was trying to show how ever though his role within the world had changed and perhaps even lessened in a way, lets face it going from the Warchief of an entire faction to a simple shaman is a huge change (even if his role among the shaman was important), that he is still important to the world even if he himself doesn’t realize it at first.

Though I had hoped that he would grow into something more like the character I have known him as in the past I was fairly disappointed with the end result. Now I will admit, that I wasn’t one hundred percent up to date with all the lore in the game since I had quit the game for a year and a half so several aspects of the lore were unknown to me, something felt very off about the lore inside this book. I don’t know if it was the writing style or just the rest of the book affecting my opinion but I did not enjoy it like I should have.

Overall I am glad I read the book as it did help fill in the gaps of lore that I wasn’t up to date on, even if I don’t know whether they were entirely accurate or not. Sure it wasn’t what I was expecting and no where near as good as it could be, but I managed to finish so it wasn’t so downright awful that I had to throw it against the wall and never finish it.(less)

I go into this review with an admission... Thrall is not my favorite Warcraft Universe character. A book centered around him did not strike me as an interesting read, and my first notion was to skip it.

A pretty good read - so-so writing, but great character, great relationships. I loved Thrall and Aggra from the games, and this book just solidified that love. Sometimes stunted but sometimes genuinely touching, this book sometimes makes Thrall seem to be something of a Marty Stu, and it never really rose above a 3 for me, but was solid and much better than some of the other offerings in the WoW tie-in series.

2004 saw the launch of an original fantasy series called The Final Dance, from LUNA Books. The first novel in the series, On Fire's Wings, was published in July of that year. The second, In Stone’s Clasp , came out in September of 2005. With In Stone’s Clasp, Golden won the Colorado Author’s League Top Hand Award for Best Genre Novel for the second time.

Golden has also written the novelization of Steven Spielberg's Invasion America and an original "prequel," On The Run , both of which received high praise from producer Harve Bennett. On The Run, a combination medical thriller and science fiction adventure, even prompted Bennett to invite Golden to assist in crafting the second season of the show, if it was renewed.
