warcraft dragon hunt was the best book i ever read. it's action adventure, epic battles, asome despription...... everything anyone would ever want.

I liked this book quite a bit. I usually try to stay away from the whole manga/anime scene, but I'm a big Warcraft fan, and this was written by my favorite WC author, so I decided to give it a try. The artwork, thank god, is very good. I was afraid it would be all big eyes and ridiculous poses, but the art is very reminiscent of what we've been seeing in the games and their manual illustrations for years. The artist does an excellent job of capturing the unique look and feel of the Warcraft world. The story is also very good. There are several threads going on at once, and you get to read about all sorts of interesting characters and events. The downside, of course, is that this is part 1 of a trilogy, so a lot of time is spent setting things up for the next two books.

Based upon the enormously popular PC, video, and role-playing games comes this first part in the Warcraft graphic novel "Sunwell Trilogy" from TokyoPop. "Dragonhunt" opens with a prologue detailing the rich history of the Warcraft universe in which the Titans go about creating worlds and breathing life into them throughout the universe. They create the Well of Eternity upon the world of Azeroth, leaving flights of dragons to protect their creation. Azeroth soon becomes a battle ground as the Titans former champion, the Dark Titan Sargeras, corrupted by evil and with hordes of orcs led by the Lich King, seeks the Well for his own. The cataclysmic battle sunders the world into fragmented landmasses. The story begins as the Lich King, Arthas seeks to rebuild his citadel and humans and orcs enter join in an uneasy alliance to battle Arthas' undead Scourge. An injured blue dragon, Kalec, now in human form is assisted by a young girl Anveena to escape those who are hunting him. Kalec explains that the dragons are seeking a great source of power and he was sent by Malygos, the Lord of the Blue Dragons, to find this power. But he's not the only one searching for it. An evil elf, Dar'khan, servant of the Lich King is also seeking the power which he reveals as the Sunwell, source of elven power, created out of the destruction of the Well of Eternity. Dar'khan captures Kalec and Anveena and only the intervention of another blue dragon, Kalec's mate Tyrygosa, allows them to escape. They soon learn that Anveena's home houses a secret...an egg which a tiny dragon hatches from. Could this be the source of the power that everyone is searching for? Where will their journey lead them from here? Dragonhunt was an outstanding start to this trilogy. Having not been overly familiar with the Warcraft Universe, I found the history rich, colorful and detailed. There certainly seems to be some Tolkien influence, particularly in the prologue, but it still cuts a nice, unique world, all its own. A lot of action was tossed at you very fast and there wasn't a great deal of character development so hopefully we will delve into these various characters in the succeeding volumes. It's interesting to see the blend of heroic fantasy done with a Manga style. Since Warcraft is a known commodity with legions of fans, people may be predisposed of how it should look, but I thought the art of Jae-Hwan Kim was superb and fit very well. Kim is one of the best artists in Manga today, having worked on the terrific "King of Hell" series, also from TokyoPop. He's got a clean, yet very detailed style and handles action sequences deftly. The story was written by Richard Knaak, one of the tops in the heroic fantasy genre. Knaak has written such huge hits as "The Legend of Huma" and The Minotaur Wars, set in the Dragonlance world, as well as Warcraft novels "Day of the Dragon" and "The Well of Eternity." In addition to Warcraft, Knaak has also written novels based on the "D

I finished reading the Warcraft Vol. 1 manga only last night, and I cannot wait for volume 2 to come out. First of all, the story is a classic, and an original. Esentially what you need to know to understand the story is that there is a well of energy called the Sunwell, which was destroyed during a war. Dragons, the most supreme and powerful beings on the planet, are drawn to the energy, although the exact location of it is unknown. Kalec, a blue dragon, is seeking to discover more on the sunwell, and reveal some of its secrets. However, he is being pursued, by others after the exact same thing. He meets two beautiful women along the way, one of them a fellow blue dragon, and the other frees him from a trap in the beginning of the story. I won't tell any more about the story- I'm afraid I may have revealed too much already! The artwork is magnificent. It is, by far, the best drawing of ANY manga or graphic novel I've ever read- the details draw you into the situation as a reader. This comes from the same animator as 'King of Hell', another superb series. Richard Knaak, a New York Times Bestselling author, wrote the introduction, which initially engulfs you into the story, as well as the dialogue. It's worth WAY more than ten bucks of your money. If you love fantasy or have an obsession with dragons, this is a must-have. I'm already addicted beyond hope.
