The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia

Legend of Zelda series was born out of creator Shigeru Miyamoto’s love of exploring the Japanese countryside in his youth. It is not only an iconic and influential series in the history of gaming, it is arguably the greatest series in video gaming. Hyrule Historia celebrates its vibrant and expansive history courtesy of Nintendo, who have kindly opened up their vault of information for their beloved franchise; and allowing it to be pieced together into this book.

A fascinating aspect is the explanation of the chronology for the series and how it ties in all the games together. It covers every creative aspect and purpose of each game’s creation. It not only tells the story but the reasoning behind it, how certain character designs came about and their motivations. There is too much to list here but rest assured that this book has been made with the level of quality that the series has become renowned for.
