Review by School Library Journal Review

Gr 3 Up--Going into debt to the tune of 15,000 emeralds to buy an incredible sword with the potential for loads of enchantments, Runt shows his true character and burning desire to become a Minecraft Warrior. A classic struggle of good vs. evil, this story will have readers rooting for Runt and his friends to succeed in their quests and efforts to protect Herobrine. In between waffle-eating contests and sipping glowberry tea, Runt manages to level up to copper in this action-packed adventure sure to be a hit with gamers. Alternating font sizes and boldness capture readers' attention and enhance interest. Illustrations are true to game graphics and will keep readers flying through the pages. Adding to the adventure's appeal are the fanciful character names and imaginative, evocative place names. Searching for ways to defend Herobrine against slimes and creeper chickens, Runt encounters gnomes, elves, zombies, and even fancy dresses made of enchanted spidersilk. Loaded with understated lessons about friendship and teamwork, this title is destined to please fans of this genre. VERDICT For parents and teachers looking for ways to connect tweens' love of gaming with reading, this series is a perfect bridge.
