Until the release of future goodies, if you were looking to pick up any of the lovely books currently available from Blizzard Publishing, they can be found here. Lydia Bottegoni, who is the senior vice president of story and franchise development at Blizzard Entertainment, states that “Great stories and inspiring artwork have always been at the heart of everything we do,” and “The creation of Blizzard Publishing gives us new opportunities to celebrate the art and stories of our games with Blizzard gamers as well as fantasy and sci-fi fans around the world.” We absolutely love that this is happening because books are awesome and they help bring us that much closer together.
