Crafting a way out of this mess is a challenge like no other. Where am I? Who am I? And why is everything made of blocks? But there isn't much time to soak up the sun. In this world, the rules don't always make sense, but courage and creativity go a long way. Washed up on a beach, the lone castaway looks around the shore. The next is not becoming food.

Love it Amazon Customer My grandma pre-ordered this book on my birthday and I will love her forever for that but anyway, I think this is my favorite Minecraft novel ever and maybe even mky favorite book all-time. "Purfect for my 8 year old advanced reader!" according to Bubba Lue. My son is a huge reader and a big fan of Minecraft. We have a hard time keeping up with his books with all his reading. So far this book is very age appropriate while having a fun adventure and using a wide vocabulary.The book itself is beautiful quality and has fun artwork. I am very pleased with this purchase.
