A treasure trove of "Destiny" lore e-books is being offered by Humble for $9.

Humble is selling an e-book bundle of all five volumes of the Destiny Grimoire anthology for the low price of $9 for $50 worth ($1 for the first volume alone), with a 15% off coupon for the Bungie store and proceeds going to the developer's foundation.

Aside from its sleek sci-fi looks, what attracted me to Destiny in the first place was its truly bizarre lore. However, in the 700 hours before I broke the habit of playing Destiny, I read very little of the game's massive lore tab.

There's something a little haunting about poring over this stuff on a desktop monitor, especially when you're in "drop your brain to 60% standby and grind for prime engrams" mode. Besides, I'd hate for my girlfriend to see me trying to do permanent damage to my eyes by reading excessive tales of the Traveller's Golden Age while illuminated by the lights of my 1440p game monitor. The game doesn't even pause, so perhaps I too will be dismissed, or at least someone will be doing the touchdown dance next to me in the tower

. With all the juicy lore in the form of e-books, I can instead build a roaring fire, throw on a smoking jacket, pour a snifter of brandy, and settle into a high back chair for an evening of intellectual enrichment." Ah, Vex pseudo-reality, yes, very nice. Elixni Pirate Pranks, how delightful." The campaign runs through Friday, June 23, and the grimoire is available in ePUB format, which is compatible with most cell phones, tablets, and e-readers.
