Synopsis

This official Minecraft novel is an epic battle for survival! When humans enter the End, a pair of endermen must decide which side they’re really on.

For as long as they can remember, the twin endermen Fin and Mo have lived in the mysterious land of the End. On the outskirts of the great enderman city of Telos, they explore ancient ruins under the watchful gaze of the mighty ender dragon. They have everything they need in the end ship they call home, and know everything there is to know about their world—or so they think until the strangers from another dimension arrive.
 
The invaders are called humans, and they’ve come to steal artifacts and slay the ender dragon. Fin and Mo are ready to protect their home from the trespassers, but when they come face-to-face with the humans, they discover that they aren’t as prepared for battle as they’d thought. Caught off guard, the twins are trapped in the middle of a war between the endermen and the humans, with the future of their home at stake.

Goodreads review by Kenya

If you'd have told me a few months back that one of my top ten favorite books this year would be a Minecraft novel, I'd have laughed at you. I don't play Minecraft and am only somewhat familiar with its concepts and gameplay, and the fact that this game has spawned an entire genre of kids' fiction (......more

'All hail the great Chaos.' I'm sitting here blinking in shock over how RIDICULOUSLY AMAZING this unassuming book turned out to be. I came for a Minecraft book with a dragon, thinking I'd get a gameplay-style quest thing . . . but no. From the very first page I was blown away with the lovely,......more

Goodreads review by Sally

Stars: 4/5 If you changed the name of things to not be about Minecraft and then made a movie out of it, it would win academy awards. Genuinely. It wasn't exactly a perfect book, most of the middle was sort of boring and could have been shaved down, but the ending was like classic literature. Damn. It......more

Goodreads review by Nick

This one went a bit over the kiddo's head - and the big reveal is not really meaningful on the surface, so there's not a lot of emotional investment. I feel like maybe it needs a second read. I love the concept. The idea is so supremely cool and I kinda hope they revisit this storyline later.......more
