Peaceful life in a perfectly constructed town bores ten-year-old Nico into mischief. Riding creepers while they explode is fun and all, but what he really wants is to escape the blocky confines of his home and take his crafting skills on an adventure to the end of the world. Just how big is the world, anyway, and what could stand in his way?
Nico has set off on an adventure to the end of the world! He now has what every great adventurer needs—an adventuring party. Turns out it’s good he has friends with him, because he’s about to face a spider larger than his whole party combined!
FINALLY! Finally after almost a month my reservation for this one was fulfilled! Whoo! I am loving this series! We continue from where we left the previous time with Nico (our awesome kid with big determination and slight idiocy as we can expect from shounen manga) + Gray (the zombie who is not really a zombie and who is the one who makes sure they don't all die, haha) + Yamabuki (the sparkly ninja who is not good at being a ninja but still is awesome), we meet new characters (including another character with a curse symbol on them), new adventures, new treasures, a cool tradition that I just loved, monsters, action, and more. It was just such a good read and I enjoyed every moment. Though I have to say seeing Gray constantly explain Nico's abilities... got really boring and lame. Hopefully... he stops doing it and just let's people enjoy the sight.
I think this will be a hit with young fans of Minecraft and/or Naruto. It's very action-packed, and the adventurous main characters are easy to root for. I'll definitely try to get this for my school library! Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.
I will absolutely be recommending this series to young readers and Minecraft fans - it's the perfect adventure set in the block-filled world so many people love. There are so many characters to adore, mini adventures, and one shared goal that I can't wait to learn about as the books continue
My kid it took so long for him to read it almost took him a month and he really liked it I can’t believe fox was actually an evil person trying to get the creeper
