An official guide to the most iconic legends and legendary creatures from the world of Magic: The Gathering.

The world of Magic: The Gathering is home to many fantastical characters and creatures, but perhaps none so intriguing as its legends. Legendary dragons, demons, angels, goblins, vampires, merfolk, wizards, and more roam the multiverse. These characters harken back to Magic’s early history, having been introduced in one of the first Magic card sets (1994’s Legends); new legends continue to tell epic stories in lore and on the battlefield through the present day.

Magic: The Gathering: Legends showcases high-quality reproductions of the legendary card art from across the game’s history—in many instances for the first time outside of the card frame—along with accompanying histories written by Jay Annelli. This collection also offers exclusive insight into the art and mythology behind some of Magic: The Gathering’s most powerful, popular, and enduring legends, including Niv-Mizzet, Emmara Tandris, Marit Lage, Sisay, Atraxa, the Eldrazi titans, Edgar Markov, Queen Marchesa, Zurgo, Pia Nalaar, Zacama, King Algenus Kenrith, Snapdax, and many, many more.

Despite the immense popularity of Magic : The Gathering, I actually know almost next to nothing about this card game, but I am a big fan of good fantasy art, and this book has plenty to offer, including th4 work of Karla Ortiz. The print size of this book is small but still comes in a sturdy hard cover format, and with the relatively low price point this is an easy recommendation.
