and its anniversary is available at: www.zelda.com/25th.
THE LEGEND OF ZELDA manga series takes place in the mystical land of Hyrule,
where three spiritual stones hold the key to the Triforce. Whoever holds them
will control the world. A boy named Link sets out on a quest to deliver the
Emerald, the spiritual stone of the forest, to Zelda, Princess of the land of
Hyrule. The journey will be long and perilous, and Link will need all his skill
and courage to defeat evil. The battle for Hyrule and the Sacred Realm has begun!
“THE LEGEND OF ZELDA Manga Box Set bundles Link’s entire magical quest
into a single collection that is a must-read for any true fan of the classic
video game,” says Beth Kawasaki, Senior Editorial Director, Children’s
Publishing. “The series wonderfully transforms the game’s fast-paced action
into a linear storyline, and has been a consistent bestseller since VIZ Media
published the first volume in 2008. This new box set is an eye-catching way to
revisit the entire series and commemorate the 25th Anniversary of
this groundbreaking game title."
THE LEGEND OF ZELDA manga series was created by Akira Himekawa, which is the pen
name of two women known simply as A. Honda and S. Nagano. The pair have created
nine manga adventures featuring Link and the popular video game world of THE LEGEND OF ZELDA,
including Ocarina
of Time, Oracle
of Seasons and FOUR SWORDS.
Their most recent work, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom
Hourglass, was serialized in Japan in the kid’s magazine Shogaku Rokunensei, published by Shogakukan.
