    Garrosh, War Crimes, and Real World Crimes

    The World of Warcraft novel War Crimes put everyone's favorite mass murderer Garrosh Hellscream up in the trial of the century, but was Garrosh right? No. No he wasn't. However, it's impossible to ignore the real world influences of the WoW trial of the century, nor can we any further ignore that fans don't get to choose if their fiction is political. Join Will Harrison as he looks at the real world influences of War Crimes, nazi Germany, and how the real world affects the lore of World of Warcraft in this return podcast.
