Since Elden Ring's release in 2022, millions of gamers have embraced the rich lore of the fantasy world created by Hidetaka Miyazaki with George R. R. Martin. Now, a new high-end book called Grace Given: The Mythology of Elden Ring brings all of the mythology of the Lands Between into a beautifully-crafted tome. But it's also extremely expensive.
Irish publisher Tune & Fairweather is releasing Grace Given, which was written by Geoff "SmoughTown" Truscott. The book is over 500 pages long, and it is "encased in a lavish, gold-foiled, full-color hardback." YouTube personality Quelaag wrote the introduction, and the book will feature 25 bespoke chapter-header illustrations by Chris Lewis Lew. Shimhaq is contributing over 15 full-color Elden Ring illustrations, while the artist known as MenasLG is providing over 100 spot illustrations. To cap things off, artist Elliot Wells has created five full-page gold illuminated numeral illustrations.
The Collector's Edition will be $277 or €250. But the Limited Edition will jump to $775 or €700. That version includes gold page-edge gilding on all three edges, and a signed and numbered art print by Shimhaq. It also comes with free shipping.

For anyone with money to burn, there's also the Benefactor Edition, which has a price tag of $1,107 or €1,000. That includes everything from the Limited Edition, but adds a custom name credit that will be included at the back of the book and in any future editions of Grace Given.
Although Grace Given is not officially endorsed by From Software, Tune & Fairweather has previously published books about Bloodborne, Dark Souls, and Demon's Souls. Grace Given: The Mythology of Elden Ring is expected to be released in the first quarter of 2025. Preorders are open now at Tune & Fairweather's official site. However, the Limited and Benefactor editions are only available for order through August 10. Additionally, everyone who preorders by that date will also get the ebook version of Grace Given as soon as the book is completed.
For From Software fans who don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on a book, there are several notable new books to buy from Amazon. The Dark Souls Trilogy Compendium Anniversary Edition was released earlier this year. Preorders are also available for the Shadow of the Erdtree strategy guide and the Bloodborne Anniversary Edition Guide, which is currently marked down by a lot. Both of those books will be released on September 30.
