The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - The Skyrim Library, Vol. I: The Histories

After originally purchasing the Skyrim Collectors Edition on PS3 (with a similarly High Standard Faux Leather Hardback Art Book included) all those years ago and recently purchasing the Re-mastered Edition for PS4-PRO I was sucked back into the Elder Scrolls Universe and ordered all 3 Volumes of these Exceptionally High Quality Produced Hardback Tomes of Skyrim History, Lore, Stories, Characters and more. These Replica books look they could of been sent directly from Skyrim, the level of detail and the standard of quality really is that high and they greatly compliment the series, I am a fervent collector of Computer Game Art Books/Merchandise and Bethesda chose wisely as I believe Dark Horse are leading the industry when it come to producing top notch, high quality products at a more than reasonable price and I have never been anything but thrilled upon receiving and flicking through one of their products. Prominently displayed on the front cover in the centre of the book is the embossed insignia of Skyrim, framed by an embossed decorative structure. Contained within this first volume are a number of books you can find scattered throughout the province of Skyrim, including A Dance In Fire and The Wolf Queen to name but a couple. Thrilled to bits with the product and if your a fan of Skyrim or The Elder Scrolls Series these are imperative inclusions for your collection, I cant recommend highly enough.

I bought the Skyrim Library Vol 1 as a gift for my younger brother. Book arrived well packaged and in good time. It's a beautiful book, a good size with beautiful illustrations from the game designers. Filled with Skyrim lore. It looks amazing on any shelf. I was not disappointed and he was thrilled. Excellent book and great seller. Thanks ♡

Just received these books today and I am vary impressed and pleased with them. The quality of this book (as with the other two in the series) is really first class and holding them in my hands feels good, almost comforting. The hard-backed covers are thick, well presented with the Skyrim logo embossed on the front, as is the title below that. Inside the front and back covers you'll find a map of Skyrim. The pages themselves are of high quality and thick leaving no bleeding of text through the other side of the page. The text itself is clear, sharp and easy to read. The bonus of these books is that there are many high-quality hand drawings and illustrations within on almost every page. So, what exactly does this book contain? Well, you know those books you often find in the Skyrim game? Well, this three-book series contains every single one of those books, and rather than reading them on your computer/TV screen, you can read them here. Some of you might want to only delve into these books when you find a book in the game, whilst others might want to sit down and read these books from cover to cover. Both ways have their merits. I believe that some of these books are also found in the Morrowind and Oblivion games. This volume (I) is entitled: THE HISTORIES The other two volumes are: Volume (II): MER, MAN AND BEAST Volume (III): THE ARCANE Are you a serious fan of Skyrim? If yes, then these books are a must have. The contents of this volume is as follows: HISTORY A Brief History of the Empire A Social History of Cyrodiil War of the First Council Five Songs of King Wulfharth The Secret Song of Wulfharth Ash-King Remanada Third Era: An Abbreviated Timeline A Short Life of Uriel Septim VII Report of the Imperial Commission on the Disaster at Ionith The Dragon Break Re-examined Where were you when the Dragon Broke? The Madness of Pelagius A Dance in Fire The Argonian Account The Lusty Argonian Maid The Sultry Argonian Bard The Wolf Queen A Concise Account of the Great War Between the Empire and the Aldmeri Dominion Biography of Barenziah The Firsthold Revolt SKYRIM An Explorer's Guide to Skyrim Songs of Skyrim Skyrim's Rule: An Outsider's View The Holds of Skyrim: A Field Officer's Guide A Gentleman's Guide to Whiterun Walking the World Vol. XI: Solitude The City of Stone: A Sellsword's Guide to Markarth Of Crossed Daggers: The History of Riften Scourge of the Gray Quarter The Windhelm Letters On Stepping Lightly: The Nordic Ruins of Skyrim The Death of a Wanderer The Fall of Saarthal A Minor Maze: Shalidor and Labyrinthian The Guardian and the Traitor MORROWIND A Short History of Morrowind The Red Year The History of Raven Rock DragonsEdit Mysterious Akavir The Book of the Dragonborn The Dragon War Olaf and the Dragon There Be Dragons Ahzidal's Descent The Alduin/Akatosh Dichotomy Alduin is Real, and He Ent Akatosh Dragon Language: Myth no More

I love Skyrim and this book is simply amazing. The hardcover and design of the book is stunning on the outside, let alone when you get to the inside. It has beautiful pages and illustrations which capture Skyrim's best books perfectly. Yes, this is a book of books that are available in the game but it is in a totally different format that you can own and it is worth every penny. Can't wait to get more! There are also a set for Elder Scrolls Online.

I cannot praise the quality of these books enough. I'm a long-time Elder Scrolls fan, and this really adds to the series. They are hardback, matt-covered and of very high quality - the paper used is also of exceptional quality, with that new book smell... Contained within are a series of the books you find in the games, and not just Skyrim - a few of these books can actually be found in the Oblivion and Morrowind games. The books specifically relate to the history of Tamriel, with a focus on Skyrim. Included are some of the best collections of tomes from the game series, including A Dance In Fire and The Wolf Queen. In order to read these otherwise, you need to find a copy of each book in the series within the game (this consists of at least 7 books each) and some of them are incredibly difficult to track down, (I personally never found A Dance in Fire Volume IV), so to be able to finally read them was a joy. Some of the material in the game is stand-alone quality - they would sell in bookshops if published. The literary material of the Elder Scrolls has always been one of its lures for me. I will assume that if you are reading this review you are either a fan of the series, or looking to buy these books as a gift for someone who is. My recommendation: buy it before it goes out of production. You'll be sorry you missed it, I promise.

On the quality of the book-excellent! It has a very nice,soft feel to it, the pages are thick and very good quality. On the content- most of the stories are very good. Some, I couldn't really place at all. If it's one thing I would comment on is the order of the stories. Sometimes it jumped from one era to another and back again. It is not a full-on history book of Tamriel. It does give very good insight on some of the leaders but not a full and linear history since the beginning like the creation, origin of species and so on. At times I felt overwhelmed by all the names that I knew nothing about so i had to go on the TES Wiki to find out more. But of course, this was only intended to be a collection of books from the actual game, not a proper history book. I had much fun reading it. Time to open up Vol II.

This book is a thing of beauty. The binding is high quality and the paper quality is good and fairly heavy. The many illustrations are uniformly excellent and appear to be a mixture of in-game scenes and also some of the early concept art that never made it into the game. The game books have been tweaked slightly to make sense in this format, which is fine. What is NOT fine though is the unpleasant abundance of glaring editing errors. This book was not proofread before it went to press. Call me picky if you like but I was mildly annoyed by the lack of pride taken in the simple formatting and correctness of the text. Nevertheless, I have still ordered volumes 2 and 3 in this series because everything else about this book is just awesome.

Beautiful book with a lot of interesting information about lore. Love it.

Book is very well-written, wonderfully illustrated, and a great gift for a Skyrim fan. My son isn't much of a reader these days, but he was sure thrilled with this book. Will likely get the other books in the series for birthday and Christmas gifts in the year ahead.

Los 3 libros están muy bien tanto como en letras como el litografías se lee muy bien, lo malo es que está todo en inglés pero por el resto todo muy bien y recomendable.

Excellent presentation for the fan or the Elder Scrolls. The cover is very nice, made of fake leather. Well illustrated book, paper is quality too. **Be aware that the texts is only the books you'll find and collect in the game of Skyim thought but if you are a collector and didn't had time to read the book you found into the game, I recommend you those books.

Yurtdışından böylesi özel collector edition birkaç kitap siparişim oldu ilgili kitaplar orijinal ambalaja sarılı paketli haliyle sorunsuz geldi. Öncelikle tüm teslimatları sorunsuz eksiksiz hasarsız hızlı şekilde tamamlayan satıcı: Amazon US Amerika ve dağıtıcı: Aramex başta olmak üzere Aras Kargo Kolay Gelsin HepsiJet kargoya çok teşekkürler. Daha başka yurtdışı (özellikle kolleksiyonerlere özel kitap vb ürünler) alışverişimlerim olacaktı Amazon US bu konuda gerçekten harikaydı, ama Maliye Bakanlığının şu son "(6 Şubat 2026) ithalat/malimüşavirlik vergilerinden muaflık gümrük sınırının 30 Euro/Dolar'dan sıfıra çekilme kararı" saçmalığı yüzünden bir daha yurtdışından sipariş yapamamak bence herkesi çok kötü durumda bırakacak.

Livro incrível. Muito bonito, presente perfeito pra quem é fã do jogo.
