Hyrule Historia #1 on Amazon’s Best-Selling Book List!
Cover art to The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia™
Following the incredibly successful prelaunch event at the Nintendo World Store in New York City, where some fans waited for twenty-four hours in below-freezing temperatures, The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia™ makes its official debut in comic shops and bookstores this week.
Immediately following Dark Horse’s initial announcement of the book’s publication, fans drove the book to the top spot on Amazon’s bestsellers list for books—on preorders alone! On the day of release, this runaway hit again tops the number-one online retailer’s list of best-selling books, with copies selling out of comic shops, bookstores, and online retailers around the globe!
The book provides an in-depth history of all things Zelda including the denizens of Hyrule, previously unseen concept art, a chronology of the Zelda games, and accounts from the original game creators about their thoughts and experiences working on one of the most well-known franchises including Shigeru Miyamoto–creator of the Legend of Zelda and the senior executive director at Nintendo. Additionally, fans will discover a comic made specific for The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia™ from noted Legend of Zelda manga creator, Akira Himekawa.
Fans can watch the Book Trailer on YouTube or pick it up now while it’s still in stock. For gamers who have followed Link since his first appearance on the original gray and black Nintendo Entertainment System 27 years ago this month, this tome is a must-have for your library.
