Picked this up thinking it would be a Zelda novel and I suppose it technically is, but it's really more of a walkthrough of the video game. I can't imagine this would have been exciting to read when I was a kid--instead, it would have been exciting to use while playing the video game.

So I picked up the video game after this. It's ok, but I'm annoyed at how badly designed it was. The game was not immersive like a good Zelda game should be. It was hard to know where to go, or what to do, without following the walkthrough

I haven't played the game so I'm reviewing it based on the book itself.

Overall I don't think it's as bad I actually found this book more entertaining. Like with Oracle of Ages it's more assuming that you've played the game.

Cover
Believe it or not I actually like Ages book cover more. The standard sticker layout of this book is really obvious and looks lazy. With that being said I love that they actually show their age by putting Game Boy Color right on the cover.

Interior
Like the last book it lacks detail depending on your knowledge of the game to guide you and the create your own adventure is more illusion of choice. The reading can really get tedious with it's villains and guiding you through the fetch quest. I think I just figured out what this book really needed. Link needed more personality in his responses and reactions when the writer had more freedom with his interactions with other characters I thought like was neat.
I did find it hilarious that a boss appears near the end declaring "I have returned Link!" then within a sentence or two is blown into oblivion.

Images
Since the book doesn't focusing on building the world rather guiding you though the game. At least my impression at least there are some pictures to understand what these characters look like.
Both books also have these thumbnail images on the top of every page of Link. Having them alternate over a few different stances is a nice touch.
