Few video game franchises have lore that runs as deep and immersive as World of Warcraft. The universe in which the game is set has well over 30 years of real-world history attached to it, as the game’s developers, writers, and “loremasters” have been constantly adding to and expanding upon the story-rich worlds of Azeroth and beyond.
One of the best ways to tune up your WoW lore knowledge outside of playing the game and burning through its countless quests and storylines is by reading the official WoW novels. Blizzard has been publishing books set in the World of Warcraft universe since the early 21st century, and with over two dozen published works set in the world of Azeroth, you can easily get immersed in WoW’s lore.
