I have something pretty to show you guys today….the Legend trilogy box set! Yup, this is coming out on November 5, 2013 when Champion releases, and it is so gorgeous I want to build a fort with crates of them. :D The box set includes Legend, Prodigy, Champion, and Life Before Legend (a pair of short stories about Day and June’s lives before the events of Legend).

It’s available for pre-order now on Amazon! Woot!
