Agora que Scolomância mudou tudo (patch 5.0.4), o seu guia perdeu a validade. Alguem sabe onde encontrar os livros que antes ficavam lá?

Comentado por Hagandil

Atualmente o unico livro que não está sendo possível encontrar é A Invasão de Draenor, pois só era possível encontra-lo em Scolomântia, mas como essa, foi remodelada após o patch 5.0.1, os livros la encontrados foram retirados, todos os outros livros lá presentes possuem uma ou mais copias mas aparentemente o A Invasão de Draenor é filho unico ¬¬'

A Steamy Romance Novel of course! :D

Comentado por 180247

Does anyone know if the game counts books you have previously read, or do you need to go and read them all again? Over the course of the last 4 years I've already read the lot and I'd rather not go hunting them down again if I can help it.

Comentado por defektunge

It's worth noting that a number of the books can only be found in Alliance capitals, whereas none of the books are exclusive to Horde cities.

Hopefully Blizzard will fix this before release...

Comentado por DarkRyder

You perhaps underestimate the diligence with which guerrilla librarians will pursue these books. After installing the Bookworm addon, I snuck into each Alliance city on my main to obtain copies of the unique books there.

Comentado por DarkRyder

This achievement is not awarded retroactively. My main has read most, if not all, of these books, but does not have credit for any of them on the beta realms.

Comentado por tehninja

just for the record, rogues can pickpocket the romance novel, and ive vendored more than u can possibly imagine XD

Comentado por LordSpike

The said Addon, Bookworm can be found here. Indeed, if you read the books you come across in your adventures, you get to learn a lot of lore and information which enhances the fun if you are into it.

Comentado por 10938

Since most books can be found at more than one place this achievement has less traveling than you might expect. Visit Scarlet Monastry (Library wing) and Scholomance and you'll already find 1/2 of the books.

Rogues and Druids: Reading a book doesn't break your stealth, so you can stealth run these instances.

This achievement isn't as hard as it looks, i was bored enough to do this on PTR (build 8982). Well, i've made list where you should go to get all of them in pretty short time, this would go like this (for Alliance ofcourse):

I was taking notes for this order, but alternative order would be: Gadgetzan -> Barrens -> Booty Bay -> Westfall -> Stormwind -> Ironforge -> Scholomance -> Darnassus

I couldn't find "Kil’jaden and the Shadow Pact" in the Stormwind library but I picked it up in Scholomance. It's in the back-right corner of the room before the room before the viewing room.

Comentado por ildon

This achievement sucks to obtain as Horde. There are a couple books that can only be read in the Stormwind library, which means attempting to get by level 80 elite Stormwind Royal Guards. Not to mention the Stormwind corpse run for Horde is one of the longest in the entire game.

Comentado por 184689

For all those trying to find the books in Stormwind, the Stormwind map is changed in the 3.0.2 patch, thus the coordinates are off. I will clarify that the is found in The Park's inn (37, 72), the one in the dwarven district is found in the inn. Whereas the others are found in both the battlemasters' room and the library. Just wanted to clarify, because I personally was having an issue with the given coords.

You may want to update some of these cords for with the addition of the Stormwind Harbor. Kinda tosses everything off.

The Betrayer Ascendant is also located in Silvermoon City (68,64), not just in Darnassus.

The Guardians of Tirisfal is also located in Karazhan, on a table at the bottom of the ramp coming out from the Menagerie.

Comentado por fosticpopcorn

Not to steal anyone's thunder, hopefully, but this is my Horde guide to getting this achievement done as painlessly as possible. We don't have either the wonderful resources that are the Hall of Explorers or Stormwind Library, which the Alliance have, so we have to rely primarily on the Scarlet Monastery and Scholomance. I've managed to track down replicates to the point where the only Alliance town we have to enter is Menethil Harbor in the Wetlands. So no, thank god, we don't have to corpse hop past King Varian Wrynn.

I've tried to order this guide by ease of flow from zone to zone, and by selecting areas with the largest amounts of "clusters" of books. In addition I will not post coordinates, but simply the link to books, as the comments on most wowhead pages typically have both coords and fantastic descriptions of the exact location of the books.

Let's start out at...

Silvermoon City

Take the portal to UC, then head to SM

Scarlet Monastery - Library
(NOTE: I recommend using beffe's fantastic map. Also because this map is available, I won't be linking these books).

Aegwynn and the Dragon Hunt
War of the Three Hammers
Aftermath of the Second War
War of the Spider
Arathor and the Troll Wars
The World Tree and the Emerald Dream
The War of the Ancients
Archimonde's Return and the Flight to Kalimdor
Beyond the Dark Portal
The Scourge of Lordaeron
Icecrown and the Frozen Throne
Kel'Thuzad and the Forming of the Scourge
Civil War in the Plaguelands

Exit the Library, and hoof it to WPL, and head to Scholo

Scholomance
(NOTE: I recommend using beffe's fantastic map, however it is missing a book).

The Seven Kingdoms
The Dark Portal and the Fall of Stormwind
Sargeras and the Betrayal
The Birth of the Lich King
Exile of the High Elves
** NOTE: This is the one book the map is missing. it is found DIAGONALLY OPPOSITE of 14 on the map. **
The Lich King Triumphant
The Old Gods and the Ordering of Azeroth
Old Hatreds - The Colonization of Kalimdor
Kil'jaeden and the Shadow Pact
Rise of the Blood Elves
The Invasion of Draenor
The Founding of Quel'Thalas

Hoof it down to Tarren Mill, take a flight path to Arathi, start running south to Wetlands.

Wetlands - Menethil Harbor

At this point, I would hearth out, and then head to Orgrimmar

Durotar - Tiragarde Keep

Rise of the Horde

Now swim or run to the Barrens - specifically, Ratchet

The Barrens

Ratchet

Northwatch Hold

Bael Modan

Ironforge - the Awakening of the Dwarves

Run back up to Ratchet, and catch the boat to BB

Booty Bay - Inn & House near Sea Wolf McKinley

If you have an empty Kara instance, I recommend hoofing it up to Kara from BB, and then entering via the back door to access the Guardian's Library (which is right after Curator/The Menagerie)

Karazhan - The Guardian's Library

That's it! Holy cow, you're done! Feels good, don't it?

I'll try to keep this post updated too if more news comes in that the books in Menethil or Karazhan can be found somewhere slightly more Horde-friendly (possibly Dalaran, I'll have to scour it on my beta account).

Comentado por Izlandi

This is incorrect. I found these books in Karazhan in the first level of the Guardians Library. Both located on tables.

Horde Guide

Here is a guide for Horde players to use to try and avoid some of the Alliance zones. I recommend that you complete it in this zone order. Click the Map Loc buttons to see where the books are in these zones. This guide intends for you to find all the books in as few locations as possible, therefore there are some books that can be found in multiple places listed below but are only listed in the first zone accessed.

Silvermoon (Map Loc)

Scholomance (Map Loc)

Scarlet Monastery (Map Loc)

Stranglethorn Vale (Map Loc)

Empire's Fall Below "Sea wolf" MacKinley
Sunwell - The Fall of Quel'Thalas Second floor of the Tavern
The Sentinels and the Long Vigil Above "Sea wolf" MacKinley
The Twin Empires Below "Sea wolf" MacKinley
Wrath of the Soulflayer Below "Sea wolf" MacKinley

The Barrens (Map Loc)

Charge of the Dragon Flights
Ironforge - The Awakening of the Dwarves In the Dwarven bunker to the south on the right of the lower level
Lethargy of the Orcs Northwatch Hold
Mount Hyjal and Illidan's Gift

Stonard (Map Loc)

Rise of the Horde Top Room of the Tower
The New Horde Top Room of the Tower

For the last 4 Books you have 3 options:

Option 1:
Westfall (Map Loc)

The Last Guardian

Stormwind (Map Loc)

Option 2:
Karazhan (Library after Curator)

Wetlands (Map Loc)

Option 3:

-Lethargy of the Orcs - Barrens - Northwatch Hold tower, or Gadgetzan
-Ironforge - Barrens- in Bael Modan Building (north of RFC level 25 mobs- go left, down 1 flight of stairs, in room directly across bottom floor stairway opening)

-Sunwell Fall of Quel'Thalas -Booty Bay
-The Sentinels Long Vigil - Booty Bay
-The Twin Empires - Booty Bay and Gadgetzan
-Empires Fall - Booty Bay and Gadgetzan
-Wrath of Southflayer - Booty Bay and Gadgetzan
-Old Hatreds - Gadgetzan (by ally flightmaster), and Scholomance

SCHOLOMANCE:
- Invasion of Draenor - Scholomance
-The Lich King Triumphant - Scholomance
-The Birth of Lich King - Scholomance, (and Darkshore town hall -low Alliance however near Stormwind)

WETLANDS:

-Kaldorei and the Well of Eternity - Menethil Harbour

Hopefully other 'Horde' copies of the two Wetlands books will start popping up in more neutral locations, and the Scholomance / Kara ones in lower areas for us. I mean, we have to clear Kara to get one book, and they just have to go to thier local library? bah
I included Darkshore/Westfall for a few of them because it is a relatively lower ally area to PvP to get 4 books if you dont want to clear an entire instance. I just stealthed in, and ran like stink after! :P

**Computer games don't affect kids. I mean, if Pac Man affected us as kids, we'd all run around in a darkened room, munching pills and listening to repetitive music...

I know there are a lot of posts about where to find these, but after filtering through most of them, I was able to make a little more sense of it for myself, and eliminate a lot of travel time. I did this as alliance, so obviously horde will be a little different, and I chose to use cities over instances wherever possible (the only instance I used was Scholomance) and I didn't include any doubles on the list. Hopefully someone will find this helpful :)

And copying from its own comments thread: This book can also be found in Darnassus at 56, 4. Ground level, to the immediate left as you enter the building sitting on top of a small table.

The other 15 books not listed here are found in Scarlet Monistary-Library(13) and Undercity(2)

The few that are in Alliance towns or in Scholo, best things you can do is take off all your gear that has durability(or all of it if you want), and run in to get them .. If you die, you die .. For the Scholo books, it just means a short run back inside and try again if you failed, or go after the other books.

Excellent guide! Just one note to add: The Battle of Grim Batol can be found at the Bael'Dun Digsite in Mulgore, and The Kaldorei and the Well of Eternity at the inn in Caverns of Time. These two were the only books that your guide listed in Alliance-only cities or inns, so I thought it was important to add this information. Credit goes to RayEmery and Mistofchaos who posted the two locations in the individual entries of the book.

A number of those above are unnecessarily hard, because there's copies of the books in far easier places. So I made a new list - for Alliance players only (sorry).

Rather than listing all locations for each book, I've worked out the quickest and easiest way to get them all with minimum travelling and hassle. It's also as easy as possible for lower level players (only a couple of books at Doan's room in SM library, and a couple right at the entrance of Scholo).

It looks like The Invasion of Draenor, The Lich King Triumphant, and The Seven Kingdoms are only found exclusively in Scholomance and Stratholme (only for the latter two). However since The Invasion of Draenor only appears in Scholo, it might be quicker to simply read all three in that dungeon. Unless these three books appear in other places that I'm unaware of, it appears that both Alliance and Horde have to visit a dungeon to complete the achievement.

to my knowledge all books can be found at least at 2 different locations save for the invasion of draenor (if anyone found it outside of sholomance let me know)

if your doing this feat as alliance first visit the library of stormwind, the hall of the explorers in ironforge and the house of the sea wolf in stranglethornvale, this should be a good start

Found Icecrown and Frozen Throne upstairs in the Inn in Goldshire so you don't need to go to the Scarlett Monestary to get that one.

I suspect that even the ones that have been previously stated as only found in Scholomance (and ones "only" found in other instances) can be found other places. Any time you go into an inn just cruise upstairs and if you see a book that is laying flat by itself on a table, chances are that it is a copy of something. I also have noticed that some of the books aren't in the places that some of the previous posters found them and instead they are in a place where a book was supposed to be found but it was a different one than the one that the poster stated should be there.

It would be nice if completing this achievement gave you a title like "The Scholar" or something of that nature. It takes some work to travel and find all the books, (especially the ones in instances) it would be nice if you had a reward for your effort, besides brushing up on your warcraft lore and being able to say you did it. Plus it would be neat =)

May I add that Scarlet Monastery (Library) is an excellent place for brushing up on your reading. There are 13 books (that I counted at least), the second biggest concentration of books after Scholo (Scholo has 15). The instance is easily soloable by any class at lvl 70, probably even lower.

If anyone is still wondering after going through the 116 comments above me. The best place to start this one is in the Scarlet Monastery - Library wing. There was at least 10 - 15 different books scattered throughout, either on tables, chairs, floor, etc...

I don't know if it's random as to which books appear, or if there is a set table that the library pulls from, and all of the books listed on said table are available.

I would say to go and do that first, and then see which books you still need to get and use one of the handy guides here.

Comentado por 254627

This is a pretty easy achievement. It just takes a long time.

All you need is time, a mage (for ports), and the Scholo key. I would recommend starting in your major cities because there is a crap ton of books there. Then I'd say get the books from Scholo (don't forget the Scholo only book, "The Invasion of Draenor"). Then go do Scarlet Monastery. After that just get the ones you missed, which shouldn't be a lot.

This is a helpful post, but it is very inaccurate. For example, most of the books that say "Only found within Scholomance" can be found in 3 or 4 other places. I had a much easier time looking up each book here in Wowhead, than following this list.

The guides above are excellent, and saved me a huge amount of time. I'd like to add one thing.

A geared 80 can speed things up a lot by hitting the 'clusters' of books first, even if they are in old world dungeons.

As an Alliance character, I ran through Scholo and SM, getting about half of them. I then visited SW, IF, and BB, and had only a few stragglers left, in Duskwood, Evelyn Forest, Westfall, and Darnassus.

Doing the list in this order saves a lot of transit time.

What one can do to for a route to collect all the books (Horde Version):

1: Go get all the scholomance books knocking off a considerable amount
2. Use the picture posted below to go through SM: Library knocking another huge amount off
3. Go to UC fly to Tarren Mill and pick up a book there
4. Fly to arathi highlands pick up "Rise of Blood Elves" and ride down to wetlands and pick the two books up there at Menethil Harbor (Both are in the Inn, with the mailbox on the top floor)
5. Ride south into Loch modan and pick up "The Last Guardian Book" AND "Last Guardian"
6. Ride a ways south to Kargath and fly to Swamp of Sarrows for "Rise of the Horde" and "Dark Portal" books
7. Then fly to Booty bay and pick up "Sunwell Fall of Quelthas" from the Inn (and The Dark portal book if needed), head to the lowest level of Booty bay where two buildings are narrowly separated and go into the right one which has "Wrath of soulflyer" and 2 others you may have missed in Scholo / Library. Also "The sentinels" book is in booty bay (click above for location).
8. Take the boat to Ratchet and pick up a "Mount Hyjal" in the Inn (And if you still need it "Sargaras and the betrayal), also make sure to go to the building north of the flight bath for "Charge of Dragonflights". Then ride down to the Northwatch hold for another mentioned above at 61.54
9. Go to Camp Taurajo and fly to Gadgetzan pick up 2/3 books there
10.Ride down to Uldum at the south of Tanaris and pick up Ironforge book
11. Hearth and go to silvermoon city to pick up "The Betrayer to finish off the quest line

Well, this guide is a good start, but it could use a little work. I give credit to Roa33 for giving a good route for horde players. I took the liberty to change a couple things and just added some more details (like the names of the books and their links):
1) Go to Silvermoon City for The Betrayer Ascendant and The Alliance of Lordaeron
2) Take the portal to UC and run out to Scholomance. There are 16 books in Scholomance. Make sure you get them all. Beffe posted THIS PICTURE showing 15 of them. The 16th one is Exile of the High Elves which is south of numbers 7 and 8 on that map.
3) Go to Scarlet Monastery next. There are 13 books in Scarlet Monastery. Make sure you get all of these too. Beffe also posted THIS PICTURE for those books.
4) After you finish up in Scarlet Monastery, hearth and head back to Undercity. Fly to Tarren Mill and pick up The Alliance of Lordaeron
5) Fly to Arathi Highlands and run down in to the Wetlands. Pick up The Battle of Grim Batol and The Kaldorei and the Well of Eternity at Menthil Harbor.
6) Ride to Loch Modan and pick up The Last Guardian and Ironforge - the Awakening of the Dwarves
7) Ride to Kargath and then fly to the Swamp of Sorrows (or just port there if you're mage) and pick up The New Horde and Rise of the Horde in Stonard.
8) Fly to Booty Bay and pick up the following: Sunwell - The Fall of Quel'Thalas, Wrath of Soulflayer, The Sentinels and the Long Vigil, Empries' Fall, and The Twin Empires,
9) Go to Ratchet and pick up Mount Hyjal and Illidan's Gift and Charge of the Dragonflights.
10) Run down to Northwatch Hold and pick up your last book - Lethargy of the Orcs

Roa33 I liked your guide, but when I followed it, I ended up missing out on a couple books because you just said "pick up 2 books here, pick up a few books here." Hopefully this amended guide will keep others from making the mistakes I did.

If you're running Scholomance for, say, the Insane title reagents, you could grab all the books in Scholomance while you're at it.
A self-made guide can be found here: http://www.wowhead.com/object=175737#comments

There's 14 books in Scholomance that you can grab in a matter of minutes, so if you're nearby, pay the place a visit.
This way you hopefully won't have to run around the world so much.

We don't have either the wonderful resources that are the Hall of Explorers or Stormwind Library, which the Alliance have

That is because the Horde is, for the most part, made up of semi-literate, half-evolved monsters and jabbering, jive-talking filth. And race-traitor Elves, so there's that. I suppose they can teach the rest of you to read.

There used to be a lot of readable quest items, too. Vanilla had tons of letters you could read while carrying them around (the Deadmines series had a few, for example). I think BC had maybe one or two readable quest items. I don't remember any in Wrath.

Edited to relist Kel'Thuzad and the Forming of the Scourge in Scholomance, where a copy had always been. There had been one in the Southshore inn before 4.0.3, but thanks to the biological/chemical weapons of the New Scourge there's nothing worth finding there now.

Rise of the Horde 47/54
The New Horde 47/55

Westfall (Sentinel Hill)
The Last Guardian 52/53
(This is the most hazardous book in Alliance territory from a PvP standpoint, so be prepared for a level 85 guard to spawn just for you.)

Tanaris (Caverns of Time)
The Kaldorei and the Well of Eternity 67/49

Scarlet Monastery
The World Tree and the Emerald Dream
Aftermath of the Second War
The War of the Ancients
War of the Spider
(These books aren't exclusive to SM, but it's the lowest level dungeon that has them, so keep your eyes open.)

Scholomance
Kil'jaeden and the Shadow Pact
The Lich King Triumphant
Old Hatreds - The Colonization of Kalimdor
The Birth of the Lich King
The Founding of Quel'Thalas
The Invasion of Draenor
The Seven Kingdoms
(Stratholme has a few of these too, but at least one of these books is unique to Scholomance, so it's more efficient to pick them all up here.)

Dalaran (in The Filthy Animal in Sunreaver's Sanctuary)
The Guardians of Tirisfal 67/36
(You'll have to be well above 70 to get here the traditional way, but a character who can convince a mage to teleport them here can get this done at any level.)

Another observation: From where these books are located, it's obvious that the blood elves and Forsaken have much higher literary interests than the other members of the Horde.

This is just a direct copy/paste of a list I made to finish off the last books I had left. Ended up taking me very little time once I mapped it all out. I thought I would post it in case it might be of some use to someone else. There is no travel guide for the Ratchet/Northwatch books because I hit them in a quick swoop before a raid. I used shorthand and the 'X's just indicate that I got the book.

Location of remaining books to read for Well Read achievement:

X Archimonde’s return…. – Ratchet, SM Library, SW library
X Charge of the dragonflights – Ratchet, Brill, Ironforge
X Ironforge: awakening – IF hall of explorers, Mulgore Bael Dun site, Loch Modan
X Lethargy of the orcs – Northwatch Hold, Barrens (near Ratchet)
X Mount hyjal and illadin – Ratchet Inn
X Rise of the Horde – IF hall of explorers, Stonard, Tiragard south of Org
X The Battle of Grim Batol – IF library, SW war room, mulgore bael dun dig site
X World tree – SM library, SW park, darnassus
X The betrayer ascendant – silvermoon walk of elders, arcane shop
X The dark portal and the fall – SW war room, stonard horde camp, redridge, blasted lands
X The last guardian – sentinel hill inn, loch modan, inside karazhan
X The war of the ancients – SM library, SW park, darnassus
X The war of the three hanmers – SM library, IF library, lakeshire town hall

SM library: world tree, war of ancients, war of 3 hams
IF library: IF awake, rise of the horde, battle of grim, three hams
Mulg: IF awake, Battle of grim
Stonard: Rise of horde, Dark portal
Sentinel Hill: Last Guardian

Go to SMC, then SM lib via UC, hearth to Dal, get mage port to stonard, fly to Grom’gol, ride to Sentinel Hill, hearth to dal, port to mulgore. Done.

I'm a little saddened that this achievement comes with no rewards.

Don't get me wrong, I know most achievements don't and I really do enjoy the accomplishment of polishing them off even with no real gain, however Well Read seems like one of the ones that's rather time consuming and I think it would be cute to have a title such as <the Bookworm>, or even a small Bookworm minipet. :)

Collecting all of these can be a doozy, but I gathered up every book that can be found in Scarlet Monastery-Library.

- Aegwynn and the Dragon Hunt.
- War of the Three Hammers.

- War of the Spider.
- The World Tree and the Emerald Dream.
- Arathor and the Troll Wars.
- The War of the Ancients.

- Beyond the Dark Portal.
- The Scourge of Lordaeron.
- Icecrown and the Frozen Throne.
- Civil War in the Plaguelands.
- Kel'Thuzad and the Forming of the Scourge.

All of the coordinates are accurate as of the Shattering.

Any new locations confirmed after the Shattering?

Pre-shattering, the books that could only be found in dungeons are

The Invasion of Draenor
The Lich King Triumphant
The Seven Kingdoms

Personally, I'm quite curious if these books can be found elsewhere now :]
As for now, there seems to be no confirmed information about new spawns.

*edit* in case it's unclear, several books can be found in more then one location, which makes the question valid.

Here's updated ALLIANCE LIST of location for this Achieve. This list is assuming you have coordinates to find these locations. I started the achieve today and took me about 2 hours of running around and jotting down coordinates. I'd say it would probably taking about an hour if you follow this list. Let me know how you all do.

With it you don’t have to fly around all over the place to find the books. I tried to stay in the same zone as much as possible. You can start from any starting zone, however, I recommend this route though SW => Outside SW => IF => Scholomance => Darnasus => take port to Blasted land => Fly to Booty Bay. Happy reading!

Just went through the entire Well Read achivement, as of 4.2.
Most were in the right locations - quick searching through capitals, scholo.
The following 3, though, I could not find.

- Old Hatreds - The Colinization of Kalimdor - This is claimed to be in either Gadgetzan (with Gryphon) or Scholo. Unfortunately, I could not find it in either.
- The Last Guardian - Claimed to be in the inn at Sentinel Hill, or Loch Modan. There is a book in the inn but it is not clickable.
- The War of the Ancients - Where NE Leader used to be, or SW... Locations have changed, not there anymore.

Might anyone be able to help track these three down post-cataclysm?

FOR THE HORDE

I'm Horde, and just completed this achievement tonight, so I know for a fact every book is currently where it's located and viewable, to date. I noticed a lot of people complaining that 'this book isn't here' or 'this book isn't there', this map shows you every book viewable at these locations. If you get stuck, just use Wowhead to see the exact cords in the zone I've supplied. It's great there is a lot of help from Alliance on where to find the books, but I have mapped out a nice route where the areas flow in to each other so you can get all 42 books. You might find repeats in areas, such as Booty Bay or Scholomance. Of course pick up the books and read them if you find repeat areas where to find them. But you will for sure, get every book if you follow these directions:

Need to point out that the book 'The Rise of the Blood Elves' isn't at 49.15 but at 49.33 according to Tom Tom, or you can just ask a guard where the mining trainer is in Craftsman Terrace, and it's on the table right next to him.
Also, The Scourge of Lordaeron is in the same room as:

MacKinley’s house (next to the inn):
-Downstairs:
Empires’ Fall
The Twin Empires
Wrath of the Soulflayer

It's in the opposite corner underneath the stairs.

all this information has made it possible for me to get this ach. it was driving me nuts searching and searching. i thank you all for the guides and information.
also i would recommend to others that if they don't want to switch back and forth between screens past copy print and have it next to you as you go. Much more enjoyable that way.

For this achievement, I was able to follow most of Glanco's post from 2008/09/26 (Patch 2.4.3) with some exceptions (on 4.3)

This is for the Alliance, unsure of the Horde side (for the StormWind location).

Scholomance
Rise of the Blood Elves (in the main room with the books in the corners) - no longer in Darnassus
Battle of the High Elves (before the viewing room) - no longer in Ratchet
The Founding of Quel'Thalas (North West corner of the Viewing Room)

Eastvale Logging Camp - 2nd Floor
Lethargy of the Orc - no longer in Ratchet

Booty Bay
Sunwell - The Fall of Quel'Thalas is on the 2nd floor now

Loch Modan
The Last Guardian (Thelsamar ) - no longer in Westfall after a certain quest line is complete.
Ironford - The Awakening of the Dwares - Stoutlager Inn

Stormwind
The Alliance of Lordaeron - Library

Also if you PUG (or solo) Scarlet Monastery - Library you can find a large chunk of the books not mentioned here that are required for the meta.I'd recommend going there first to knock out a large chunk of what is needed and then work your way down from there. Took maybe two hours as a 85 and that was mainly flight time.

Post-Cataclysm, "The Last Guardian" is missing from the Westfall Inn. You can still find a copy in Thelsamar in Loch Modan.

I must commend Bliz for creating this achievement. I and probably others had gone into it thinking, easy achievement, I'll do that! Turned out I learned a lot about the lore and became quite interested in it, where I probably wouldn't have thought to read up on that stuff before. I actually quite enjoyed this.

Ran Scholomance to find all the books, and as of the new patch 5.0.4, did not find a single readable book. I put in a ticket to inquire whether they are removed or temporarily disable; I have a two day wait for a response. Will update when I hear back.

Any Word on the books in Scholomance? The only one that you have to read in Scholomance was "the invasion of Draenor." And it is the only darn book i need to read.

Comentado por Fauvist

You are no longer able to complete this achievement as of of Patch 5.0.4.

The book "The Invasion of Draenor" was taken out of the game in the Scholomance update.

Unless you already have that criteria completed on your character(s), you won't be able to complete it.

Comentado por 1030180

FYI!

As of latest Mists of Pandaria patch this Achievement is impossible to complete. The books that were located in the Scholomance are gone and thus the achievement is currently undoable. For those of you wondering, the Blizzard has been contacted but it remains to be seen when and where these few books will reappear.

Comentado por 555434

Why this achievement was not made an account-wide progress achievement with patch 5.0.4 is a mystery to me. I guess it is just another one of Blizzard's trademarked "Read-Between-the-Lines Middle FIngers." It would be nice if this achievement worked more like or because, honestly, it is only worth ten points...
...but I guess ninety-percent of the achievements are worth ten points... DOH!

As of 4/4/2013 (Patch 5.2), this achievement is now attainable again.

A Invasão de Draenor has been returned to Scholomance, and is located pretty much exactly where it was before the dungeon was changed for MoP.

Go check it out and rate me up when you get your achievement :D

Comentado por fday

Many books appear at multiple locations, especially in capital cities (e.g. Darnassus and Stormwind share quite some titles). Also, visiting Steamwheedle Cartel cities seems interchangeable (e.g. Ratchet and Booty Bay).

“A Invasão de Draenor” is the only book in Scholomance. If there are lvl 91 elites, leave and switch from heroic mode to normal. All enemies will be around lvl 42.

All books are available in patch 5.3.

Very simple Alliance beginner's tip: Before you get overwhelmed with the insane number and varying locations of these books, go through every room of:
1.) Stormwind Keep (the castle in the city) as well as:
2.) Stratholme main entrance dungeon and:
3.) The room just past the Horde Flight Master in Booty Bay (top, middle, and bottom floors). Dont worry you wont aggro him.

Without even looking at the achievement or looking at Wowhead, this will net you about 75% of the books in CURRENT WoW (Post-Cataclysm changes) and make the journey ahead of you SO much easier! I'd assume there is a Horde equivalent location to the same books found in Stormwind, but do not know exact locations.

This Guide was posted by Hollye on 2011/10/22 (Patch 4.2.2). There have been some changes to this really wonderfully put together guide, and I've updated it for 5.4 to the best of my knowledge. Since the changes to Scarlet Monastary and Scholomance, books have moved. I've edited where needed – not all of this guide is my work.

That being said, a list of where to find the books for HORDE is below. They should be ordered in a roughly optimized route if you have epic flying. If you have slow flying, you might do Silvermoon City to Arathi, hearth to Vale, port to Thunder Bluff, do Mulgore to Barrens to Ratchet, boat to Booty Bay, work backwards up the list from Blasted Lands to Stormwind, hearth to Vale, port to Dalaran, get Dalaran books, port to Caverns of Time, get Tanaris books, done.

Maybe it isn't so relevant to this achievement specifically.. But if you happen to be completing a circuit for honoring / extinguishing fires for Midsummer (or anything else that makes you traipse around the world), consider finishing off Well Read while you do it.

Most of the time, you're either in the same town, or very near to a town, that contains books you need.

Two birds..!

I tried to follow other coordinates and directions to each book but they were hard to follow at best and completely wrong at their worst.
So I went and found each book.
Any book with a number after it means that you can find it at another location in my coordinates.

It seems these books can also spawn in NEW Dalaran bookshelves (or strewn about) located in the various stores and places. Just doing a quick run around I found the following in about 10 minutes:

The Lich King Triumpant
Rise of the Blood Elves
The Guardians of Tirisfal
The Seven Kingdoms
Charge of the Dragonflights

Their tooltip description says "Copy commissioned by Archmage Newhearth of the Curators. Do not worry about returning the book, it will return on its own" and has a two hour duration.

can you read only one book at a time at each location?

I read one book at Darnassus but I can't find any of the other books that are there.

I was missing The Guardians of Tirisfal from the Stormwind library. I would come to Stormwind Keep every day to try and find it. Not only couldn't I see this book, but I couldn't see any books in the library (that were interactable).

Turns out the issue was that I was phased at Stormwind Keep. There were quests available for invading Darkshore and I strongly suspect this was giving me a library without any books. Once I completed those storyline quests I came back to SK library and the book was there.

So if you come to the keep library and all the books are missing, you could see if there are any available quests in the keep and complete those then try again.

For any alliance doing this, if you don't see any books in stormwind like me, you have to take the quest from the nightelf with green cloak cant remember the name, Madiev? Which talks about Zoram strand, you have to actually take the portal on Stormwind Harbor and go to the place in west Ashenvale, but dont take any follow up quest and get back to Stormwind, then all books are phased back (-:
