The first official Minecraft novel! In the tradition of iconic adventures like Robinson Crusoe and Treasure Island, the number one New York Times best-selling author of World War Z tells the story of a hero - stranded in the world of Minecraft - who must unravel the secrets of a mysterious island in order to survive.

Washed up on a beach, the lone castaway looks around the shore. Where am I? Who am I? And why is everything made of blocks? But there isn't much time to soak up the sun. It's getting dark, and there's a strange new world to explore!

The top priority is finding food. The next is not becoming food. Because there are others out there on the island...like the horde of zombies that appear after night falls. Crafting a way out of this mess is a challenge like no other. Who could build a home while running from exploding creepers, armed skeletons, and an unstoppable tide of hot lava? Especially with no help except for a few makeshift tools and sage advice from an unlikely friend: a cow.

In this world, the rules don't always make sense, but courage and creativity go a long way. There are forests to explore, hidden underground tunnels to loot, and undead mobs to defeat. Only then will the secrets of the island be revealed.

Two editions, two narrators, one thrilling story. Enjoy this version read by Jack Black, and then be sure to check out the other available version narrated by Samira Wiley.©2017 Max Brooks (P)2017 Random House Audio

Jack Black makes this story a treat for kids and adults alike. My 6 and 4 year olds love Minecraft and they can’t get enough of this story. They have listened to it at least 10 times all the way through and continue to ask for it. My husband and I both enjoyed listening to it as well. If your kid likes Minecraft- you can’t go wrong with this story!

I love the book and it is very accurate information about Minecraft but he made a continuity mistake with him saying "after the creeper attack" even though he hadn't known what it was called. But over all it is my favorite book of all tiiime.

Great book for kids and adults.

I'm gonna be 100% honest. I started listening to this as a joke, but the story is amazing and the performance of Jack Black is hysterical. I am simply in love with this novel. It can cary on sometimes and as someone who has played minecraft since the Alpha, I got aggrivated by how long it took the protagonist to make discoveries. but this book holds many great references and morals for adults and young'uns alike.

A Must-Read for minecraft lovers
