Re: Competition: Win A Set Of Third Editions Books, Including Zelda, Dark Souls And Final Fantasy

My favorite video game book(s) would have to be the Legend of Zelda manga by Akira Himekawa. It was a huge part of my childhood, I have so many fond memories of checking them out of the library and learning all about the fantastical adventures of Link and his friends. I'm a part of a younger generation, all I had back then was my Dsi, so for me most of Zelda's narratives were introduced to me through the manga. My friends and I would read those books and play Four Swords Anniversary edition together on our Dsi's after school. I remember getting Hyrule Historia back when it came out too, can you believe it came out 7 years ago??? I was so happy when I found the little Skyward Sword manga in the back, that was a neat touch. Man, those were the days. It seems so long ago now...

But I'm very grateful, for the new Twilight Princess manga have started coming out, giving me some nostalgic reading to look forwards to. And for once I've played the game before reading the manga! Its so nice to go back and read something for the first time, but yet still be so familiar with the characters of my childhood being presented in that artistic style I know so well. And they've changed the story up a bit too, which gives it a fresh new take on the story.

Anyways, thanks for reading my nostalgic musings. It was nice to talk about them. Good luck to everyone who entered!
