Minecraft: The Mountain cover

In Minecraft: The Mountain, an explorer teams up with Summer, a survival expert, to navigate a perilous frozen world and discover the power of teamwork.

In Minecraft: The Mountain, a lone explorer finds themselves wandering through a vast and icy tundra, feeling more isolated than ever. As night begins to fall, the dangers of the frozen world become all too real, with dark creatures lurking in the shadows. The explorer grapples with feelings of doubt, questioning whether leaving the safety of their island was the right decision. Just as hope seems lost, a mysterious figure appears, fighting off the menacing horde and changing everything.

This figure is Summer, a fellow castaway who has mastered survival in these harsh conditions. The explorer, thrilled to find another person in this blocky realm, quickly teams up with Summer, who offers a safe haven within her impressive mountain fortress. However, as they navigate their new partnership, both must confront the challenge of teamwork. Having been accustomed to relying solely on themselves, they must learn to collaborate effectively if they wish to survive the perils that lie ahead.

The journey in Minecraft: The Mountain is not just about survival; it’s about the bonds formed in adversity. As the duo faces relentless threats, they discover that their combined skills may be the key to overcoming the daunting challenges of the frozen landscape. Together, they must learn to trust each other and work as a team, or risk losing everything they hold dear.

Brooks was both an obvious and an unusual choice for a novelization...Reads less like narratives than like introductory texts on problem-solving theory, albeit lively ones with zombie attacks... * New Yorker *
A wonderfully entertaining and uplifting read and particularly great for gaming enthusiastic kids and reluctant readers. * ni4kids *
