The History of Warcraft for your lunch reading

It might just be a Warcraft Monday. Could be worse. Blizzard has offered up an extensive history of the World of Warcraft as they prepare to release their massively multiplayer game. It's a good idea to get people caught up on the lore of the world. It makes the gaming experience so much richer. The mythology of the Warcraft series didn't start out too well. But as the story gets longer and more detailed, it's beginning to shed some of it's more standard fantasy-fare, which bodes well for World of Warcraft. Of course, Blizzard gives you a few links to their novels and guides, as well. A small price to pay for a great free resource. Something to tide you over until the game gets here.
