About this list
Where it comes from
Every entry below is taken from World of Warcraft: All the Lore — Organized By Chronological Order, assembled by Akaria TXreaper. That document is the reason this site exists: it is the most complete Warcraft chronology anyone has put together, and it deserves the credit.
What this site adds is the one thing a document cannot do — remember what you have read.
What it misses
The source document was last updated fin 2022 and its author marks it as out of date and not fully accurate, pointing to the Warcraft Wiki timeline instead. Its coverage stops at the pre-launch announcements for Dragonflight.
Missing, and still to be filled in by hand: Dragonflight, The War Within, Midnight, plus every novel and comic published since 2023.

A word on the order
This is the order in which events happened, not the order in which the books were published, and not always the best order to read them in. Some works are split across several eras, and some appear twice — once where the time travellers set out, once where the story mostly takes place. Those entries carry a tag that says so.
