Staff note: This guide is outdated but kept up for Archival purposes due to the positive feedback it received when it was relevant.Well ReadPreparation

You can buy a flying mount which will save a lot of time and if not, you will at least have access to all the flight paths, so travel by foot will be minimal.

You should be able to solo Scholomance. Otherwise, you will have to find a group to do it with.

An addon that navigates you to waypoints is recommended, such as Carbonite, TomTom etc.

Click on the links to see a map of where the book is if the description (in italics) is not enough to help you find the book.

You do not have to read through the entire book, you only have to right click on it and see the first page.

N = north, E = East, S = south and W = West. They will usually refer to a side or corner of the room you're in.

Spend your time flying between locations reading up on the descriptions of the books you're going to find in the next location so that you don't have to keep switching windows.

nice info, and even better since you have planned out a route for people to follow.

Formatting 6/10
the use of tabs would make this guide look far more professional, and a couple pictures would make it more aesthicaly pleasing

Love this guide. It took me longer only because I wasn't trying for a 'timed run' BUT I still did it in under 45 mins!

Commento di 870144

Nice but took me an hour

Commento di royalite

Nice guide!

But one problem... if you did enough quests to have Sentinel Hill on fire, the book there is phased. You have to go to the one in Loch Modan (37,47) on the night stand behind Karm Asciaferro who is in the basement near the mining trainer.

Commento di Brainscar

The book "Old Hatreds ... " is not at the location indicated in Darnassus. The book that is actually there is the "Old Gods ..." book. In addition, your link in the Darnassus tab goes to the wrong book, or the right book depending on your perspective.

So anyone following this guide should still pick up that book, but you'll need to find the other at another location.

The place I'd go to find "Old Hatreds ... " is in Scholo while getting the rest of them. Alternatively, you can find a copy in Gadgetzan south of Noggenfogger near the wall on the ground just west of the blacksmith and a few barrels.

Great guide! Thanks a lot!

Some photos would help, but still, great guide! Took me around an hour

ALSO: Theres an error in the Darnassus part of the guide. It says; "Head to the center building of the Craftman's Terrace by the water.
Old Hatreds - The Colonization of Kalimdor (54.3,38.6)", but the book there is actually called "The Old Gods and the Ordering of Azeroth". The Colonization of Kalimdor book is the one in Scholomance.

much better! content is still 10/10 extremely useful and well planned out.
formatting 9/10, the only improvement would be to add some pictures purely for aesthetic reasons, not of every book obviously but maybe just one pic of (the first book?) above the tabs off to the right?

I found some books in the same locations that weren't listed.

What do you do if you're hated with the Goblins? You say to start at Booty Bay for several books, but if I set a foot in there I would be killed on sight.

Many thanks. This guide is much less intimidating than some of the others I've read for this achievement.

Commento di Floraphilia

This was wonderfully helpful and saved me so much struggle!
Thanks and keep makin' awesome guides!

Commento di Ukari

Very nice guide. Easy on the eyes, and easy to follow in game.

Commento di 739768

Hi! Really like the guide but I've found one book you appear to be missing.

"Mt. Hyjal and Illidan's Gift" is on the second floor of the Scarlet Raven tavern in Duskwood. In the room on the far right as you come up the stairs. (Farren Daris's room.) It's on the table in front of you as you enter the room.

Commento di Zuril

Oltre il Portale Oscuro is also in The Salty Sailor in Booty Bay - Third floor (40.5,73.8).

Commento di karatechop

Commento di Bladre

-La Guerra Civile nelle Terre Infette is on SW library, on the right side pilar of the west wall

Commento di Voxi

I love the tabs! How much easier could this get! :D

The only ehh I ran into was at the Tower of Azora, while looking for a book on a desk instead of on a bookcase against the wall - but I still found it easily enough that it didn't cost me any time.

Thank you bunches. *Snoopydance*

Commento di NukeGoose

alot of these books can also be found in scarlet monastary library. different books spawn each time you zone. just a helpful tip that helped me out.

Commento di 1017154

good guide, me and my wife got it done in 29 min

Commento di Valelin

I think your guide is very well, written, and I used it to get a lot for the books for the achievement. However, there is a problem. With patch 5.0.5, Scholomance was redone, and the books are no longer there.

The Seven Kingdoms-Strat SC
Icecrown and the Frozen Throne-Strat SC
Sargeras and the Betrayal- Ratchet
Kel'Thuzad and the Forming of the Scourge- Strat SC
The Birth of the Lich King-Strat SC
The Lich King Triumphant-Strat SC
The Invasion of Draenor-NOT AVAILABLE (blizz screwed up, only copy was in Scholo)
Old Hatreds - The Colonization of Kalimdor is the same as The Old Gods and the Ordering of Azeroth

So, to repeat, at the moment, the achieve is not earnable, unless you have already checked off The Invasion of Draenor!

Commento di 1108260

I found none of the books in Scholomance. Any suggestions on where else i may find them?

Commento di 1120174

Very helpful, got my achev in 35 min :D

Commento di 946201

I went into Sholomance tonight and the only book I found was The Invasion of Draenor in the room where you fight Lilian Voss

Commento di Jaikthedruid

Did this one tonight. The books that are supposed to be in Scholomance are actually in Stratholme except for two. The The Invasion of Draenor is indeed in Scholomance still and Sargeras and the Betrayal is in Arathi Highlands (not confirmed, going off of Wowhead's info on the book). Hope this helps all those confused people like me! Enjoy!

Commento di Sheiabah

Great guide helped me complete this last night,I hope you get time to update it at some point as there are a few changes now and I had to dip out for a few of the books, specifically Old Hatreds and Sargeras and the Betrayal which were in Tanaris (hard to see by the blacksmith on the floor by two yellow pots) and Ratchet, (set back on a table in the inn - black book), but otherwise really helpful thanks :)

Commento di Ginaliano

For anyone coming here post 5.4 this is a little out of date. Best to go to

Done as a 90 Mage.

Commento di 1553718

I don't know when this happened, but the only book left in Scholomance is "The Invasion of Draenor". :/
Too bad, this is a really clear guide.

Commento di 1553718

This guide is great, but after I clicked all the books, I noticed I still had five left.
I think Blizzard changes the location of books, because I've seen a lot of people say they found one book in for example Stormwind, but when I checked, it wasn't there. And also, they just switched the location of a book with another book in the same room. So I'm just saying where I found these on 15 October 2016. :)

The locations:

I Kaldorei e il Pozzo dell'Eternità Stormwind - As you enter the library, turn right and you will see it on the pillar just before the table in front of you.
La Nuova Orda Stormwind - Turn left after reading the first book, on the second pillar is The New Horde.
Aegwynn e la Caccia ai Draghi Stormwind - Turn left after reading the second book, on the second pillar is the Aegwynn book.
I recommend taking the boat from Booty Bay to Ratchet now, as you'll find the fourth book there.
Sargeras e il Tradimento Northern Barrens - Enter the inn in Ratchet, the book is on the bedside table between two beds.
Vecchi Rancori - La Colonizzazione di Kalimdor Tanaris - You can fly here or just teleport to Caverns of Time via Dalaran: Northrend or Dalaran: Broken isles.
I recommend using your hearthstone if it's set in the Shrine (take the portal to Dalaran, then go to the Violet Citadel, up the stairs, and take the first portal on your left), or using your Broken Isles Dalaran teleport (enter the hall in the middle of dalaran, the lower chamber has a portal to Caverns of Time).
So, go to Gadgetzan once in Tanaris. Go to the south gate, find Derotain Mudsipper, stand in front of him while facing south. The book is on your right on the floor.

Happy reading!

Just thought I would share that most of your guide works wonderfully. Was able to follow all directions and fill in the well read books I hadn't read, until I got to Scholomance. I did the dungeon (since I hadn't done it before with this Alt) and then went back to the entrance and began looking for books. Not a book to be found anywhere.

Commento di pjrulez

It's kinda outdated now but still helps a lot, anyway Handy Notes addon Well Read also speeds it up with tooltip information about which level the book is on like ground, first or second floor but I noticed some are missing there too! So while filling the blanks I found out you used a wrong link for Old Hatreds - The Colonization of Kalimdor... it goes to Old Gods... so that lead me to Ironforge again for nothing :D
