Lore Based Books Series

I was wondering if anyone else agrees with my that riot should make books on each of the characters about there backstorys together and stuff like that. I know that i would really love to have some story line to add on to the lore or even just stuff that happens with some of the characters while in the league i think it would be really cool and there are plenty of theorys based on champs that it would actually be pretty easy to do.

Don't even know if this is right place to post this but if you agree comment pls :D

I agree, but it's unlikely and I recommend you not make it into anything more than a dream. There are around 120 champions, meaning there'd have to be 120 books just for the individual champions. Even if we had a book for each region that'd be somewhere around 8 books and, ultimately, lore doesn't sell as well as say skins or eSports does. I'm not sure Riot will ever be committed to lore to the extent of putting out written content like this, I'm afraid.

My Sona , Talon , and Jhin novels will always be in my heart. :(

Best they could do is make books with several main characters and some champions as side characters (personal opinion: XinZhao seems like a side character for future storylines in Demacia).

It could be done, but it would have to be done after foundations are all laid out.

I was on a different post about this very topic. Question really: why hasn't Riot done it yet? They just have to follow what Wizards of the Cost have done with their Magic: the Gathering card sets like Mirrodin. Two to three authors, along with the creative team, pulling a kick-ass novel collection. If there was an opportunity like that, I'd jump on it like a heartbeat and beg to write the manuscript.
