1''The Myth of Link and Zelda'' is a series of fanmade novelizations of the ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' franchise. The original three novelizations cover the games in the setting of ''Videogame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'', including ''Videogame/HyruleWarriorsAgeOfCalamity'' and ''Videogame/TheLegendOfZeldaTearsOfTheKingdom''.

3The original three stories are a subseries of the author's greater crossover universe, the ''Fanfic/MarvelFanfictionUniverse'', which crosses over DC, Marvel, and Nintendo characters alike. However, the PDF version of ''Fanfic/BreathOfTheWild'' removes the crossover elements present. After the announcement of ''Tears of the Kingdom'', the author decided to expand the series beyond three stories, and decided to make this series only partially canon to the other series.

5The series serves as a [[DarkerAndEdgier more mature and darker adaptation]] of the relatively light-hearted, if serious-oriented games in the franchise. The result is an adaptation that remains faithful to the content of the games while diverging in some significant ways, and connecting to other games in ways that dramatically change the outcome of the stories. It makes use of PragmaticAdaptation and AdaptationDistillation to retell the stories in a novelized format.
