Goodreads Synopsis:
Link must defeat evil at every turn in his perilous quest to help Princess Zelda!
Once upon a time, wizards tried to conquer the Sacred Realm of Hyrule. The Spirits of Light sealed the wizards’ power within the Shadow Crystal and banished them to the Twilight Realm beyond the Mirror of Twilight. Now, an evil menace is trying to find Midna, Princess of the Twilight Realm, and the fragments of the Shadow Crystal to gain the power to rule over both the Twilight Realm and the World of Light.
Midna has been Link’s traveling companion and ally since the start of their journey, but will her ultimate goal of saving the Twilight Realm drive her away from Link? Link’s own quest to save Hyrule leads him to seek the advice of Princess Zelda—and learn that to defeat the ultimate evil plaguing the world they will need a particular weapon: the Master Sword!

Review:
Midna and Link confront a couple of people in this volume. They
confront Midna's past, mainly. The twilight realm that's hurt her,
and the one person from the light realm that she connected with.
The one part I didn't expect here was what happens with Zelda. I
didn't expect this and it confuses me, a lot. What happened to her?
I'm not okay with this plot point, and I want it resolved soon
please.
After that, Link officially becomes Link, I guess? Whether he accepts
it or not, he becomes the hero of the story, whom everyone was
waiting for.
There was also a weirdly intimate moment with Midna near the end
here. This series is making me feel weird things and I don't like it.
A video game being turned into any other format is always kind of
weird. You can tell when something would have been a battle in the
game, and yet is cut so very short and anticlimactic in this format.
It just leaves things feeling a bit unfinished.
Despite that, this is still an interesting series to follow, for
people who've played the game or who haven't, I think.
A review copy was provided by the publisher, VIZ Media, for an honest review. Thank you so, so much!
