About the Book In the world of video game Minecraft, Jeremy lives in the biggest city in the Overworld, surrounded by tall buildings, redstone wonders, and many people, but still he feels lonely and wants a friend. Book Synopsis Uncover the truth hidden at the heart of a wondrous city in this official Minecraft novel! Jeremy has never brewed a single potion, but he knows what its like to be invisible. He lives in the biggest city in the Overworld, surrounded by tall buildings, redstone wonders, and tons of people. So why does he feel so lonely? Why is it so hard to find a friend? When Jeremys family meets a family from out in the wilderness, it looks like its going to be the same old story. The outsiders kid, Valda, acts like Jeremy is a helpless little baby. Sure, hes never caught a fish or fought a hostile mob, and maybe school only lets him read about crafting and never try it himself. That doesnt mean Valda has to be so rude! But thats not the only trouble Valdas family has brought with them. They share a terrifying story: A new kind of zombie has appeared, one that can do things no zombie should be able to do--steal resources and work together to terrorize the folks who live outside The Citys walls. To stop them, Jeremy and Valda will need to put aside their differences, team up, and learn from each others cultures--or the Overworld may never be the same!
