About the Book: This illustrated hardback brings together two classic World of Warcraft tie-in stories in one handsome volume. In Lord of the Clans, readers follow Thrall's journey from captive gladiator to the orc leader who reshapes his people's fate, exploring prejudice, identity, and redemption along the way.
