From my past of playing Warcraft 3 and World of Warcraft, this brought me back to an epic tale, but now with emotion and detail. Wonderfully written, and I could see it all in detail whilst the story was unfolding. Great Read Review: Great book - My expectations to this book were quite high - and Christie Golden fulfills them gracefully. It was one of those books I opened and only reluctantly closed when every page was turned. Truly a shattering read, such as the story often is with Arthas. Golden lets you fall so deeply in love with Arthas' charm and good heart that even after all the evil he has done as the Lich King, killing him is heart breaking. Also, worth adding is that the recognisable conversations from the Warcraft III champaign made my heart swell with warm nostalgia. A wonderfully frustrating book that I'll recommend to anyone, and of course especially those interested in Warcraft lore. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 150,270 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 95 in Science Fiction & Fantasy Art History & Criticism 141 in TV, Movie, Video Game Adaptions 249 in TV, Movie, Game Adaptations | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (2,388) | | Dimensions | 10.64 x 2.29 x 17.15 cm | | Edition | Illustrated | | ISBN-10 | 143915760X | | ISBN-13 | 978-1439157602 | | Item weight | 1.05 kg | | Language | English | | Part of series | World of Warcraft | | Print length | 416 pages | | Publication date | 17 Jan. 2013 | | Publisher | Pocket Books | ## Images ![World of Warcraft: Arthas: Rise of the Lich King (World of Warcraft (Pocket Star)) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81NIbvEekYL.jpg) ![World of Warcraft: Arthas: Rise of the Lich King (World of Warcraft (Pocket Star)) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71cYDWSx8WL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow! *by M***R on 15 January 2023* Loved this book. From my past of playing Warcraft 3 and World of Warcraft, this brought me back to an epic tale, but now with emotion and detail. Wonderfully written, and I could see it all in detail whilst the story was unfolding. Great Read ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book *by A***W on 11 May 2014* My expectations to this book were quite high - and Christie Golden fulfills them gracefully. It was one of those books I opened and only reluctantly closed when every page was turned. Truly a shattering read, such as the story often is with Arthas. Golden lets you fall so deeply in love with Arthas' charm and good heart that even after all the evil he has done as the Lich King, killing him is heart breaking. Also, worth adding is that the recognisable conversations from the Warcraft III champaign made my heart swell with warm nostalgia. A wonderfully frustrating book that I'll recommend to anyone, and of course especially those interested in Warcraft lore. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great condition, but not my favourite WoW read *by S***H on 10 April 2022* Christie Golden is a genius, especially when she gets to write her own and not by an exact guide. EX: Jaina Proudmoore Tides of War is a 5 star book for me. Emotional story that you just can't put down. I found the Arthas book hard to push through. It starts with Arthas as a child, and builds up to him becoming the Lich King. That part only begins about 200 pages in, so don't expect much of his evil side. Christie had to follow an exact story we've already seen in the game. If you're a diehard LK fan, or haven't played the games - yes this book is great. If you just like CG and play the games - I don't recommend. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/48554616-world-of-warcraft-arthas-rise-of-the-lich-king-world](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/48554616-world-of-warcraft-arthas-rise-of-the-lich-king-world) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
