norsemytho southwood group news article books you should read to better understand wow
Bookmarked 657 weeks ago http:wowjoystiqcom20130422books-you-should-read-to-better-understand-wowno this isn039t a list of wow novels the thing is world of warcraft is built on the backs of a lot of fantasy literature mythology sword and sorcery epics and so on and while attempting to put together a reading list to truly explore all of these subjects would be meaningless making some recommendations to help you get into the wow spirit could be fun if nothing else you039ll get to potentially read some new interesting booksnow there039s no way i can get every classic of every genre that039s influenced world of warcraftinto a list that would fit on this site there are hundreds of potential books out there so i039m just going to hit some highlights and let y039all go wild in the comments filling in the blanksjrr tolkien039s lord of the rings - tolkien is the 10000 lb gorilla in modern fantasy if you039re not influenced by him you039re a reaction to him the reason there are multiple kinds of elves and dwarves running around azeroth fighting orcs is because of tolkien039s impact on fantasy if you want to get the tropes you should probably read thisrobert e howard039s conan and other stories - howard is the other huge gorilla influencing modern fantasy i mention conan as his most famous creation but there039s just as much good stuff to be read by howard that has nothing to do with the cimmerian his solomon kane kull bran mak morn and his forays into horror and historical fiction all blazed from an imagination so incandescent that it burned the man himself out in a short amount of time be warned - most of this stuff was written for the pulps and it has all the virtues and all the flaws of pulp fiction written in the 20039s and 30039s it039s often racist sexist and ranges wildly in qualityfritz leiber039s fafhrd and the grey mouser series - warcraft039s bent for flawed characters with feet of clay even when they command armies or nations comes from leiber039s most famous creations heroes who were much less engines of destruction than flawed greedy sometimes amoral menmarion zimmer bradley039s darkover series - specifically the idea of azeroth and draenor as planets visited by people from other worlds it039s not unique to or invented by bradley but she did a lot to popularize it and was one of the first and most popular authors to do sokathryn kurtz039s deryni books - it039s easy to forget how unusual kurtz039s approach to magic and fantasy was when these books first started coming out her approach to a pseudo-histroical fantasy setting can be felt in wow039s human kingdomsglen cook039s black company series - this series is exactly how i think of my guild in terms of the wow fictional setting if you want to try and wrap your head around what a guild would even be the black company is a really good modelmichael moorcock039s elric series - honestly the whole eternal champion cycle is worth reading but elric is the easiest character to start with the sorcery level in the moorcock books is a lot closer to wow that most other heroic fantasy with characters capable of wreaking untold devastation with magic also moorcock is just a hell of a writerjohn gardner039s grendel - wow has a lot of this book039s dna with the idea of presenting what is usually seen as the monster as a sympathetic hero if you play an orc or troll this book is worth reading heck it039s worth reading anywayjack vance039s the dying earth series - vance039s influence is primarily in how magic and spells work in wow and it039s by inheritance the dying earth itself also has some influence on places like outland a world on the brink of destruction and there are other books in this vein such as gene wolfe039s book of the new suncl moore039s jirel of joiry stories - some of the earliest fantasy fiction to have a female protagonist and one who does her own adventuring straps on armor and a sword and deals in wholesale violence in her adventures jirel fights wizards demons and strange cults of ghost eatersmervyn peake039s titus alone - really the whole gormenghast cycle but titus alone really has all the weird retro-tech touches we recognize in wow goblin and gnome engineers are rooted in the steampunk genre that works like this helped create also see jack london039s goliah the works of jules verne and gregory keyes age of unreason oh and paul di filippo039s steampunk trilogy of coursehoward phillips lovecraft 039s cthulhu mythos - the old gods of the warcraft setting are lifted directly from lovecraft lovecraft himself encouraged others to write in what came to be known as the 039cthulhu mythos039 including robert bloch writer of psycho robert e howard clark ashton smith and many others lovecraft039s esay supernatural horror in literature is still a must read for an understanding of how horror works as a genredungeons and dragons - i mentioned vance earlier as an influence and dampd is why dampd is to video games and fantasy what tolkien is to the entire genre - if you present a world with dragons monsters and magic for players to explore and murder stuff on it039s either going to be descended from dampd or a reaction against dampd and the warcraft setting manages sometimes to be both of those things if you have never managed to play dampd or any pen and paper rpg you probably should at least once to understand where things like character classes come fromjenny march039s penguin book of classical myths robert graves039 the greek myths kevin crossley-hollans039s the norse myths anne m birrel039s chinese mythology: an introduction and world mythology: the illustrated guide these are all books i own so i feel secure in recommending them for you to get a sense of the mythology that039s being tapped for titan lore in places like uldaman uldum and ulduar as well as mogushan vaults and throne of thunder while you039re at it jack kirby039s fourth world and walter simonson039s run on thor are useful for getting your head around the 039space cosmic gods039 aspects of the titansokay so that039s my picks leaving out books i love like the worm ouroboros jurgen andthe the once and future king that i didn039t really think fit but the best thing about posting such a list is the comment section where you all chime in with your own ideas about what books people wanting to better grasp the warcraft setting should be reading so have at it people |
