This is the gold standard for 'video game books.' Max Brooks (who wrote World War Z) brings a legitimate novelist’s eye to the Minecraft universe. Instead of a lazy cash-in, he’s written a survivalist classic that feels like a modern Robinson Crusoe.
It’s especially great for kids who might be 'reluctant readers' but 'pro gamers.' It validates their hobby while sneaking in some high-level thinking about trial-and-error and the scientific method. If you’re looking for a bridge between the iPad and the bookshelf, this is it.
