The Sundering is the third book in the War of the Ancients Trilogy by Richard A. Knaak.

This book describes the last events in the new timeline of the War of the Ancients, and focuses specifically on the events leading up to the Great Sundering of Azeroth; the great explosion that ripped the continents of Azeroth apart and created the two continents we see today.

Back-of-book description

The hour of wrath draws near...

The valiant night elves have been shattered by the loss of their beloved general. The black dragon, Neltharion, has claimed the Demon Soul and scattered the mighty dragonflights to the winds. Above all, the demonlord, Archimonde, has led the Burning Legion to the very brink of victory over Kalimdor. As the land and its denizens reel from this unstoppable evil, a terror beyond all reckoning draws ever nearer from the Well of Eternity's depths...

In the final, apocalyptic chapter of this epic trilogy, the dragon-mage Krasus and the young druid Malfurion must risk everything to save Azeroth from utter destruction. Banding together the dwarves, tauren and furbolg races, the heroes hope to spark an alliance to stand against the might of the Burning Legion. For if the Demon Soul should fall into the Legion's hands, all hope for the world will be lost. This then, is the hour...where past and future collide!
