The Jungle Temple Oracle

The Mystery of Herobrine #2

by Mark Cheverton

An ancient jungle temple holds the secrets to stopping the evil Herobrine!

Gameknight999’s true enemy has finally surfaced: Herobrine, an artificially intelligent virus that wants to escape Minecraft and destroy mankind with their own creation—the Internet. If he is able to escape the game and get online, Herobrine will infect millions of computer systems and turn machines and weapons on their masters, threatening all of humanity.

After facing Herobrine in battle and nearly dying, Gameknight realizes he’s going to need much more help to defeat this seemingly invincible enemy. His NPC friends tell him of the ancient Oracle residing in the oldest jungle temple in Minecraft who knows the secret to defeating this terrible threat. The path to the temple is fraught with danger, with zombies, spiders, and creepers lying in wait behind every tree and bush. Gameknight will enlist the help of his friends on his quest, but will they reach the Oracle in time to stop Herobrine? Gameknight999 will be tested to his limits, and perhaps beyond, in this spine-tingling new adventure.

This book is about a user named Gameknight trying to find the jungle temple to stop herobrine from destroying the world. I really liked the book because it is a book about Minecraft. I would recommend this book to someone who likes Minecraft.

I enjoyed this book because I LOVE MINECRAFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I also enjoyed this book because I liked the part when Herobrine teleported away from a humongous pack of wolves when he was about to defeat Gamenight999. It always seems that a humongous pack of wolves make Herobrine teleport away right when Herobrine is about to defeat Gamenight999. I also enjoyed this book because I liked the part when an army spiders and cave spiders retreated.

Again, not the most refined prose, but a compelling plot. And my 8-year-old son can't get enough.

I thought this book was really good! There’s this “player” named Gameknight999 and he’s known as the “User-that-is-not-a-user” His dad built a machine that allows him to somehow travel to Minecraft. It’s unrealistic but that just makes the story more exciting. He meets a few villagers that become his friends and he helps the fight this virus called Herobrine. I recommend this book for people who love Minecraft and have already read the first book of this series called Invasion of the Overworld. If you aren’t into Minecraft then that is totally fine, Mark Chevon has written other book that don’t relate to Minecraft and you might find one that you like. I think that you should read this book because it is really interesting.

I liked this book because I LOVE MINECRAFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think the most exciting part of the book was when Gameknight999 killed Shaikulud!!! I think it was very surprising when the Oracle withstood Herobrine.

My kids are into playing Minecraft, so they really enjoyed this book. However, I didn't really care for it as an adult.

when i tell you that this book had a chokehold on me as a child i mean it. found it at a book fair and ate this up, loved it.

I will always want to reread all of this series it's so good.

[Valen · Rating 4 out of 5]

To be quite honest, I only vaguely remember this book, but I do remember still being excited to read it, and wanting to pick up the next book right afterwards, so 4/5 Stars - a good book for child me

[Matthew · Rating 4 out of 5]

I think that the book "The Jungle Temple Oracle" by Mark Cheverton is a cool book with plot twists and revelations. I rate this book 4 stars because the plot twists were a bit predictable and they didn't play much of a role or affect the book. I recommend this book to anyone who isn't afraid of spiders, like Minecraft, and love brother sister duos. This book is about Gameknight999(aka the User-Who-Is-Not-A-User) and his sister( also the User-Who-Is-Not-A-User) going to a Jungle temple to talk to the oracle(spoiler alert, she's the music of Minecraft) and find the anti-virus for the Herobrine virus(yes, Herobrine is a virus, umm...spoiler alert?).

Compared to the other Gameknight books, I felt this was the weakest so far and most difficult to get through. It didn't manage to capture my attention until the last few chapters. I was repeatedly annoyed by the interaction with the spiders and the fact that they seemed to hiss like snakes. It was also difficult to find the message that the author was tying to weave into the story, which is usually done so well. The message here was about patience and faith/confidence in self and others, but it wasn't driven home nearly as well as the messages the author has put forth in the other books.

Gameknight was so close to beating the zombie king, then herobrine stepped in. Know Gameknight is not so sure what to do and he has to find a Oracle? Will Gameknight be able to find her to find a way to stop herobrine? Or will he die at the hand of herobrine's oldest creation? This is a good book for Mine crafters.

[Daniel · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was all in all a very enjoyable book, if you play Minecraft. The writing style is maybe a little childish, but it is not written by a "New York Times Bestselling" author. Overall, I really liked this book.

[Stephanie Noble · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very interisting and was the fist book i read in the series. Read the ones before first.

Fight! Don't fall into the trap!
