I was in my local music store the other day and they had some Legend of Zelda graphic novels including Ocarina of Time and Majora's mask. I haven't bought them yet but just wondered if any of you guys have and if they're any good.

My brother has most of the set. I suggest them - they're pretty good, albeit non-canon.

It is debatable as to whether or not they actually are canon. I think that we can all agree that the "Hyrule Historia" is absolutely canon, no questions asked. That being said, one of Akira Himekawa's graphic novels appears in the Historia, itself, lending to the idea that these novels, have, infact become adopted into the canon.

1) The on in HH is stated to be non-canon
2) it's near-impossible for the manga to be canon, since, for example, the OoT Manga provides a backstory to Volvagia that goes directly against the one provided in OoT itself.

I have a few of them and I enjoy them even if they don't follow the games

They are a lot of fun. I don't think you'd regret owning them if you get a good price.
I own the ones for several games and preordered the TP one. They're really cool, especially if you're really into the game itself.

They're re-releasing the manga in the coming months. I think they are called 'Legendary Editions'? I'm not sure what's different exactly (besides the cover), but I noticed it on Amazon a while ago. OoT is first.
Thanks for the comments everyone, I will most probably grab them next time I'm up there as they did look appealing, and they read from right to left which is a novelty in itself haha.
