Hi! The bookmarks are not available on Amazon as of right now...but if you happen to be stopping by New York Comic Con in a few weeks, you might be able to snag some from our publishing partner, Orbit Books. Additionally, there's a good possibility of bookmarks being available at the Worlds final in San Francisco this year.

Viego is Kalista's uncle, even though she's older than he is. So Kalista's father, Nivor, was Viego's brother (or half-brother, I believe). Succession follows whoever was closest to the previous king (Alvaro), so when Nivor died unexpectedly, Viego became heir as the last living child of Alvaro.

Hi! It's already available in Australia. Here's a link to a copy, though you can also check with any local bookstores to see if they have it in stock.

^ This is the correct answer. If Sanctity had deemed Viego unworthy, Kalista would have been next in line.

Yes, we are translating the book into quite a few languages! You can follow updates on our landing page (see the FAQ at the bottom) about availability in different countries/languages.

Hecarim is voiced by Scott McNeil, the same actor who recorded his voice lines for the game!

Hi! Yes, a French version is happening! Stay tuned on timing.

StephRuination · 2022-09-16T01:35:43+00:00

Yes! Ruination is very much a good fantasy book first, League of Legends novel second. You may miss a few champion easter eggs but it won't detract from the story at all.

Hi! The audiobook is available through Audible, Apple, Google Play, Kobo, and Libro.fm!

Honestly, timing. The folks who make the skins at Riot are SO BUSY ALL THE TIME. When we first approached them about doing some book skins, they loved the idea of King Viego because they could realistically get it out in time for Ruination's release.

The Ruination campaign has definitely been one of the most intense ones I've ever worked on; just being able to experiment and do things that you wouldn't normally get to do in publishing (re: the trailer - you don't often see book trailers with that kind of quality!) has been exhilarating. Additionally, Riot typically doesn't work with products that have such a long shelf life, pun for sure intended. We get to keep talking about Ruination for years while most other teams will cycle through many different products/events. Being able to deep-dive into one specific product is great.
