i got this book & it's two counterparts when they were all half-off, and let me say, ABSOLUTELY worth the buy if you catch a nice sale. probably still worth the buy if you're a big loz fan with more expendable income than me. truly is everything i could hope for from a book with the title "loz encyclopedia". if you have a loz fan in your life, especially one who's maybe a little autistic and just likes to read fun facts and info about their fave game series in a nice format, i 100% reccomend this book.

My son grew up playing Zelda since he was young. I gave this for Christmas. And I've gifted him the other two for his birthday and a second Christmas as well. He absolutely loved them and was shocked. They had books like this. These are so well-made and super sturdy and so informative. If you have a Zelda fan, these are wonderful gifts. I highly recommend.

I got this for my boyfriend for his birthday along with Breath of the Wild for Nintendo Switch. He loves Zelda games and hadn't played that one yet. I figured this book would just collect dust on the shelf. I was so wrong. He has been reading it since he opened it! Since he started Breath of the Wild and dragging around this encyclopedia.. I barely see him. He even used this book to tranlate "Zelda" language (for lack of a better term) by zooming in on various signs and stuff in the game using a key in the book. It's full of information.. he keeps showing me Link's backstory and evolution of looks over the years. I always buy books as gifts because I'm a reader.. he really isn't so I was pleasantly shocked he is so into this book. He actually bought the other ones available the Art and Artifacts and Hyrule History ones which I considered buying but settled on this one. Im glad because he enthusiasticly flipped through the art one and barely gave the history one a full flip through. So I picked the right one. The others of course are nice to have though. If you are on the fence.. get this one. The only complaint is he wishes there was more info on this Breath of the Wild. It is listed but there is not much in there on that specific edition.. but it doesn't stop him at all. Don't let that hold you back... It makes a really nice gift. I finally picked out a book he actually likes!
