I CAME........Buckets...
The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia. A literal tome about 239 pages (Plus a 35 page Skyward Sword manga) of spooge producing, fanboy, nerdgasm bliss. I'm not ashamed to say...Well, a little ashamed -_-...That I literally hugged this book when it arrived in the mail. This thing is fucking huge at 9x12 inches and a pretty hefty hardcover.
The books been popping up all over the place, now that the English edition is here, and at a little over $20 I feel like it's a steal!
I would also like to note that there is a limited collector's edition version out there with a brown cover and gold lined pages that run about $180 on ebay. Only 4000 of those exist...Which seems like a lot. 400 would make more sense.

Cost me 35 bucks to order it online, and I too hugged it when I got it. It's flippin' awesome. I love how they created the timeline of the games, and how it actually has three separate branches. Didn't take me long to read, and I'm going to be re-reading it again for a long time.
