Humble Bundle has a great deal for anyone interested in the story behind Blizzard's Warcraft franchise - The Humble Book Bundle: World of Warcraft Legends Library! Although this doesn't include all the Warcraft books, only a select few with additional graphic novels, this is a great chunk of them to get started on your lore adventure!

  • The books are DRM free in a PDF format so you can use them on your devices however you please.
  • There is an art book available in the second tier - the Cinematic Art of Warcraft Vol. 1.
  • The charity being supported in this bundle is the Call of Duty Endowment run by Activison Blizzard.

As with all bundles on Humble Bundle, there are different tiers. You'll want to go all the way to the third tier to get the most out of your reading and to complete the War of the Ancients trilogy since one book is available under each tier. Here are all the different tiers of books available. We've marked the novels separately from the "comics". Prices are not included in the tiers as they vary regionally.
