I think Minecraft is the greatest game in the history of the world, and so did my two children who literally begged me to write Minecraft stories for them when they were young. That is why I have dedicated my life to writing Minecraft-inspired books to share with everyone!

For readers under 9, I recommend the first nine books of my Baby Zeke the Chicken Jockey series, my Mob Mania Tales, the Peter and the Player's Palace series, and my three-book Spider Chicken series as well as Creeptastic, A Notchmas Carol, and most of my standalone books.

For readers ages 9+, I recommend all of my other books, including the Diary of a Surfer Villager, Ballad of Winston the Wandering Trader, and Glitch Guardians series.

I am going to write more Glitch Guardians books in the next few months to get that series going. I do have an idea for a short series (maybe three books), but I probably wouldn't start that until sometime after summer.

Also, I may write a non-Minecraft book and release it this summer, but that is still in the contemplation stages.(less)

DarkWolf1 Dr. Block? I have my own profile. And I was wondering if you want to come check it out. Here's the link:

You know EnderDragon544 right, Dr. Block? Well, I'm EnderDragon544. I just changed my name to DarkWolf1. Why? Cause I think it's cool. And if other people want to check out my profile, that's fine with me. All they will have to do is push the link.

And there's not a lot on my profile, sooooo…

But if you still want to see it, go ahead.

This girl, DarkWolf1, is outta here.


DarkWolf1 Not gonna lie, Dr. Block is the best minecraft author I have ever seen. And BTW, all of his books deserve 5 star reviews. Dr. Block may be the BEST minecraft author anyone has ever seen.

Everything I said is true.
