Series Overview[]

It is unknown when the books were first written: however, Alice remarks that her grandfather really liked them, indicating that they've been out for some time.

Trivia[]

  • Although the books are initially suggested to be a fictional work, the True Ending of the game reveals that the stories contained in them are actually true, as the world Alice lives in is Erion over a thousand years after Armageddon.
  • Seeing as almost everyone in the world died during Armageddon, it is unknown who could have possibly written the books and kept all the information within true to the events in the story. A bonus "Curtain Call" cutscene obtained after the player reaches 100% completion suggests that there was a writer in the time of Erion collecting information for a book that would ultimately become Odin Sphere's story; however, this scene is generally viewed as the developers' means of "thanking" the player for completing the game rather than being canon to the overall story.
