Review:
I thought I wasn't going to love this book as much as I did. What really sealed the deal was the mentioning of Tanaris, Un'goro Crater, & almost being able to yell LEROY JENKINS!!!! when attacking.
I appreciated the Dark Lord was in fact female as well as her love interest. I thoroughly enjoyed her other love interest (at least in their mind) was a male. It was a human, orc, & vulpera love triangle.
I thought it to be a typical yet not typical story. I don't know if it was just my imagination putting the actual horde in place of Davi's horde or what, but once Blizzard gets their act together he should write for them. I mean, it definitely cant get worse after the last few expansions.
Goodreads Description:
Groundhog Day meets Guardians of the Galaxy in Django Wexler’s laugh-out-loud fantasy tale about a young woman who, tired of defending humanity from the Dark Lord, decides to become the Dark Lord herself.
Davi has done this all before. She’s tried to be the hero and take down the all-powerful Dark Lord. A hundred times she’s rallied humanity and made the final charge. But the time loop always gets her in the end. Sometimes she’s killed quickly. Sometimes it takes a while. But she’s been defeated every time.
This time? She’s done being the hero and done being stuck in this endless time loop. If the Dark Lord always wins, then maybe that’s who she needs to be. It’s Davi’s turn to play on the winning side.
