The peaceful realm of Azeroth stands on the brink of war as its civilization faces a fearsome race of invaders: orc warriors fleeing their dying home to colonize another. As a portal opens to connect the two worlds, one army faces destruction and the other faces extinction. From opposing sides, two heroes are set on a collision course that will decide the fate of their family, their people and their home. So begins a spectacular saga of power and sacrifice in which war has many faces, and everyone fights for something.

Exceptionally well written - Nerdspan
I like how well the story deals in moral ambiguity rather than sticking to the familiar script of orcs bad, humans good. There is honor, love, and valor on both sides, just as there is betrayal, corruption, and frailty. - VG Blogger
