BaD #4: Zelda Art and Info Books

The Legend of Zelda series has enjoyed a wealth of supplementary material in the last decade. I don't even have the Arts and Artifacts book! I have, however, read through most of the Hyrule Historia, which I did right after playing Skyward Sword, the game that figures most prominently into the book. Hyrule Historia is most famous—or infamous, perhaps—for providing an official timeline for the series. The other books here were all gifts. I wish I'd had a chance to really dig into Creating a Champion. It's such a huge book! The book on the lower left book is from Fan Gamer and is all about the items and enemies in the series and is written like a field guide. Neat book. The other is an art compilation my younger brother put together one time and sent me a copy. So much good art.

Like Commissioner Gordon says in Batman Begins when he sees the Batmobile for the first time, "I got to get me one of those!"

I have both of those tomes, along with the Zelda Encyclopedia (the blue book). The Dark Horse Zelda books are so good, especially Creating a Champion. The world of Zelda is so interesting to dig into, lots of cool lore.

Your poor book shelf! Those four books together are packing some serious weight!

I just shelved the Art & Artifacts book right next to Hyrule Historia at my library. I got to take them out sometime.

You, sir, have a cool library.

They have D&D night. I could DM to help out, but I'm shy.

I just love how big and grand looking these art books are. I want some for Yakuza. The pack-in tiny "art book" with Yakuza 6 did not count.
