The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Hyrule has just been released through Game Press as a 332-page unofficial hardcover. It doesn’t present itself as an official Nintendo book. What it does is retell The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time from the perspective of Hyrule’s NPCs.
Anna-Victòria Teixidó wrote the book under the name Kurusonna. It follows the game’s chronology, but starts before Link begins his quest and keeps going after he leaves, using him as the thread connecting citizens , shopkeepers, guards, and other side characters. Game Press still hasn’t confirmed exactly which NPCs appear.
Game Press says the book brings original interpretations of Zelda characters and events. On the physical side, it includes thread-sewn binding, an introduction by Carlos Martínez, who goes by Seijurou, interior art by María Lozano, known as Maiku, and cover art by Víctor Polonio.
If you’ve spent years with Ocarina of Time, or you collect Zelda books and extras, this looks like one to pick up. Zelda has been back in the spotlight lately thanks to recent anniversaries and newer games, and that helps, even if this book sits outside official canon.
The €25.95 Deluxe Edition includes the hardcover, an Ocarina of Time GP Card print, and two bookmarks.
Then there’s the €35.95 Hero of Time Edition, sold exclusively on the Game Press website. That version comes with an Ocarina manual, a character map, two art prints, two exclusive bookmarks, an Ocarina of Time GP Card, and a numbered certificate.
