Minecraft: The Island (Narrated by Samira Wiley)

An Official Minecraft Novel

By: Max Brooks

Narrated by: Samira Wiley

Two editions, two narrators, one thrilling story. Enjoy this version read by Samira Wiley, and then be sure to check out the other available version, narrated by Jack Black.

The first official Minecraft novel! In the tradition of iconic adventures like Robinson Crusoe and Treasure Island, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of World War Z tells the story of a hero—stranded in the world of Minecraft—who must unravel the secrets of a mysterious island in order to survive.

Washed up on a beach, the lone castaway looks around the shore. Where am I? Who am I? And why is everything made of blocks? But there isn’t much time to soak up the sun. It’s getting dark, and there’s a strange new world to explore!

The top priority is finding food. The next is not becoming food. Because there are others out there on the island . . . like the horde of zombies that appear after night falls. Crafting a way out of this mess is a challenge like no other. Who could build a home while running from exploding creepers, armed skeletons, and an unstoppable tide of hot lava? Especially with no help except for a few makeshift tools and sage advice from an unlikely friend: a cow.

In this world, the rules don’t always make sense, but courage and creativity go a long way. There are forests to explore, hidden underground tunnels to loot, and undead mobs to defeat. Only then will the secrets of the island be revealed.

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.

Fantastic story!

Novel stayed faithful to the game while being entertaining at the same time. The narrator, Samira Wiley, did an amazing job of bringing the story to life and giving it a life of its own.

Super good

Different then jack black but still amazing the narrater did so good! I loved it so much!!

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.

Amazing

All the other Minecraft books I have read wich as a 10 year old boy that is a lot of Minecraft books this is my overall favorite Minecraft experience that I got from a book
