BlizzPlanet has an excerpt up from Christie Golden's
upcoming Rise of the Lich King novel, featuring the back story of perhaps the lesser known (though no more less powerful) half of the Lich King,
Ner'zhul the Shaman. Arthas has gotten banner credit for being the big bad in this expansion (because it's his form that the Lich King is possessing), but Ner'zhul is in there as well, being all evil and angry. And this little snippet from the book portrays very well just what exactly is going on inside that big spiky helmet. As much as little Arthas is lost inside the Lich King's power, there might still be a tiny bit of him that's still fighting back. Is he worth saving or not?
I haven't been really interested in the Warcraft books, but given
how timely this is (we're about to go knock that helmet off), and how interesting
the story of Arthas has been, this is one that I plan to check out. It's due out
later this year.
