Tips
Horde players should complete Silvermoon City, Northern Barrens, Southern Barrens, Tanaris, and Hillsbrad Foothills first to minimize time spent in Alliance-controlled zones before finishing in Stormwind, Ironforge, Darnassus, and Scholomance.
Some books appear in multiple zones — the steps above list each book only in the earliest accessible zone to reduce total travel time.
The book in Westfall is noted to be removed after a certain quest line is completed in that area, so visit it early if you plan to go there.
