Uncover the history of one of the most influential games of all time in The World of Minecraft .

Read the stories behind mods like Feed The Beast, the growth of community-defining servers like Hypixel, and YouTube channels like The Yogscast, plus a personal account from Lydia Winters on the creation of Alex, the impact of Minecraft charity Block by Block, the origin of the phantom, and many more insights. This must-have collector’s item includes a foreword from chief creative officer Jens “Jeb” Bergensten and an afterword from vanilla Minecraft game director Agnes Larsson, plus original concept art, beautifully detailed renders, and previously unseen archive materials that illustrate how the game has developed over its first fifteen years. Journey back into past eras of the game and look to the future in this comprehensive chronicle of Minecraft’s story. Review: Good Gift for Minecraft Fans - Bought this as a gift for my Minecraft-enjoying husband. He enjoyed reading it and learned a lot about the history of the game. It’s a nice quality book. Review: Very cool Mincraft history book - Yes, you read that correctly. This book is a very detailed history of both the game and it's impact on a generation. When I first purchased it, I assumed it was a new guidebook for the game, (IYKYK) and was actually pleasantly surprised to find out it is more of a read-through. Our favorite section/chapter goes over the infamous Minecraft music parodies that were viral so long ago. (Again, IYKYK) This book is very high quality. The pages are thick, the cover is substantial, and the print quality is excellent. A nice, heavy book, that would make a great gift for any Minecraft enthusiast. This will definitely be a coffee table book for my sister, whom I purchased it for as a Christmas gift.

Good Minecraft reference
Purchased this book for my 8 year old grandson for Christmas. He is super into Minecraft and this is a book to read so win-win. He was thrilled to get it and immediately put everything else aside to start reading.

Great for Minecraft Fans
I bought this as a Christmas gift for a Minecraft obsessed teenager. He loves it. He has been reading it and giving me “fun Minecraft tips” for the last week. It’s super fun for him and we have had some interesting conversations about Minecraft even though I am not at all interested. 😂

Great gift book for the miner in your life
It was a Christmas gift for an 11 year old who is very skilled at Minecraft. He’s checked out almost every Minecraft book at our library, and still was very interested in this book. It has new info to him. It’s also a pretty book - large, coffee table, high quality materials and layouts.

Not worth it
The book does not feel like being a collector's edition. I was hoping for more concept art, something worth Minecraft's 15 anniversary, but it's simple in-game screenshots or pictures of people, accompanied by text on the side. Will return

Per i collezionisti di Minecraft
La lettura non è di per se super coinvolgente, ripercorre i momenti salienti del videogame, dei suoi aggiornamenti e soprattutto della community, dei server e dei content creators. Insomma, un libro da collezione.
