    I'm wondering if it'll fit in the letterbox. Looks like will be a bit late to work tomorrow and Thursday if it doesn't come tomorrow.

    Arrived this morning. Didn't fit the letterbox. Just opened the Amazon box but since was wrapped in plastic, I decided to leave it until I get home from work.

    Bigger than I expected. It's about the size of the Guinness Book of Records

    I'm hopeful it's worth it

    This is where the official Zelda timeline was revealed. And I was reading that Dark Horse even went into so much detail of translating that they even translated small things like notes on artwork.
    All reviews look positive.

    Also, I'm the same in that I wouldn't buy it unless I truly believed it would be worth it, especially if a Zelda fan. :D

    Look at the purdy artwork. :)

    Agreed. "Oh that game would lead to that one if x happened. Lets call that the timeline!"

    There is no timeline, short of a makeyup one. I still want that book though!

    Totally agreed. The split timeline makes even less sense!
    "If the hero of time failed..." :rolleyes:
    Zero sense.
    If they just left it as a single timeline, and stuck them in some arbitrary order, it'd have made more sense than that!

    The truth of the matter is the Zelda games are largely not connected to each other in any way shape or form. Its this need people seem to have to make the games connect that has resulted in this timeline lark.

    Why can't people be happy that there are Zelda games & they're individual games... separate & free from the constraints a timeline sets

    Is there a timeline where the moon smashes into Hyrule and there are no further Zelda games? Because I keep meaning to stop it happening but I have a lot on at the moment...

    Also how many Zelda origin stories have we had so far. Apparnetly Minish Cap was the forging of the Master Sword but now it's the forging of the already forged master sword since Skyward Sword has come along.

    I just hope Nintendo ignore that timeline crap and just keep making them great games.

    The moon was never going to smash into Hyrule, it was the (fatally named) Termina.

    Haven't sat down and read it but looking through it, it looks like money well spent. For the price there's a lot of content and it looks really good. And the manga at the back is massive, considering manga books I've read are usually slightly bigger than pocket sized.

    Didn't actually check today. But when I preordered it was something like £16.69. Couldn't use Amazon currency converter on a preorder and ordered something else at the same time so got free shipping.

    A look that I can't provide. Though it may be in local Easons or Forbidden Planet to look through.
