It's a book. This one isn't free unless you sail the high seas. :/ (yeah it's annoying)

To get addicted? I would say the War of the Ancients trilogy, it covers a period in Warcraft known as the sundering but from a different perspective from Warcraft 3 as it focuses on 3 characters 'created' by the author (technically you can say it was blizzard/knaak) which in turn heavily influence the current story and timeline in World of Warcraft (WoD excluded to a point).

If you aren't looking for a long read, as mentioned by /u/disaace, Arthas: Rise of the Lich King is fantastic and covers Arthas Menethils descent in to 'madness' as he takes up the mantle of 'The Lich King'. The internal struggle in that book was one of the best things in any of the Warcract/WoW series i've read.

If you enjoy either of those, you can go in a few directions but i'd recommend covering the history of/between Orcs and Humans which you can read in World of Warcraft: Chronicles of War which covers 4 books and gives you a really solid grounding.

Some people have issues with some of the writing styles but if you just take the story for what it is and you've grown up around the Warcraft games then it's hard to not geek out a bit!

I'd recommend reading Arthas: Rise of the Lich King. While the story does focus on Arthas and how he became to be the Lich King, it does feature quite a bit of Jaina and how Arthas turned out affected her outlook on things.

There was a book written by Christie Golden that covers his life up to Wrath of the Lich King.

Or you could look up the Warcraft 3 cutscenes on youtube. I imagine there is probably one that has all of them in order, you know, Video Game: The movie style.
