The story was just frustrating on many levels

The book started out interesting buy quickly got into animal rights b.s. even when starving to death and the entire book was about "life lessons" for a 10 year old. I really did not enjoy this book at all. first time I have yelled at a book before.

Samira Wiley narrates!

I accidentally downloaded this version when I had thought I was downloading the Jack Black version. I was disappointed that the narrator was someone else. Luckily, my disappointment faded quickly when I reread the narrator's name. I'm a huge fan of Wiley's work and the roles she's chosen. She succeeds in being so very relatable through the tv screen despite the dramatic scenarios her characters find themselves in (Orange is the New Black, and, of course, Handmaid's Tale). She works her magic here too through the car speakers. She has a young, energetic, curious, and indomitable vibe that comes through in this reading/acting that my 8 year instantly felt connected to. Wiley's reading felt sincere, which reinforced the lessons of each chapter, creating meaningful, aspirational heft. Good stuff. Grateful that producers and author chose a female voice! I have two sons and even to them it's obvious the shameful lack of female protagonists in literature consumed and aimed at kids. More Max Brooks! More Samira Wiley!

Btw, I totally enjoyed story. And I sometimes want to bang my head against the wall when my kid wants to talk about the video game for the 100th time that day. Plus, book demystified for me some of the appeal of the game. Good resource for befuddled grown ups.

Exactly what it says on the Tin

Nothing in this book is groundbreaking or amazing or life altering. It literally is what ut says it is... a game of Minecraft written down. that said, it delivers on this premise very well. As a fan of the game, I appteciated that it didn't try to make the world rules make sense, or try to turn it into something realistic. Or even try to give the game a backstory. The narrator's performance was perfect. I felt her stress, and her pain and her victories. I felt her connection to Moo the Cow, too. over all, well done. i probably wouldn't recomend this to people who are not fans of or interested in learning more about the game, but for those that are, I highly recommend it.

My first Minecraft story!

This was the first Minecraft story I was introduced to. I've played the game and I've watched videos, but this was the first literary work I've experienced from Minecraft. I liked the story and listened to the Jack Black Narration. As well as the Samira Wiley version. I honestly love them both. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes Minecraft and is unsure about it's reading material.

A great narration

the narration and music paints a movie in my mind. It made me have thoughts I never had when playing the game like how it would be if I was there. never thinking of how there would be smells and tastes. its definitly a great listen even to non-players. im glad this was my first audiobook thanks to audible.
