Coming a year after the Japanese edition the Western release Hyrule Historia is an impressively weighty tome. Beautifully hardbound in green and embossed with gold it looks and feels much more expensive than its cover price suggests.
The Kindle version of The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia is out now. It is the ultimate collection of historical information on the Zelda franchise. Shigeru Miyamoto pens the ebook’s introduction.
Dark Horse Comics and Nintendo are releasing a digital version of Hyrule Historia in April.
"A look at one of the biggest letdowns in an otherwise-fantastic book.
When Hyrule Historia first released in Japan, I was highly skeptical of the official Zelda timeline it presented, but I managed to keep an open mind. I can’t read Japanese and decided to wait for a translated version that would, hopefully, explain specific confusing events in greater detail. Well, after having time to read the English translation of the book, cover to cover, I still feel the official Zelda timeline has two major flaws.", writes NintendoWorldReport.
