Herobrine's War

The Birth of Herobrine #3

by Mark Cheverton

New York Times Bestselling Author. If you play Minecraft, you will love taking this adventure with Gameknight999 into the game you love! One hundred years in Minecraft’s past, foiled by a time-traveling Gameknight999, the evil virus Herobrine has gone mad with rage. Now determined to wipe every NPC alive off the server as punishment for meddling with his plans, he crafts a new monster king to lead a devastating aerial assault. Gameknight, his true identity still a secret, is stunned when a vicious ghast army, commanded by a terrifying monster that the User-that-is-not-a-user remembers all too well, arrives at the village he’s protecting and unleashes wave after wave of unthinkable terror. With his army overpowered and outnumbered, Gameknight realizes they have no chance of defeating Herobrine and this new army out in the open Overworld. If he’s to save Minecraft from complete annihilation (which would destroy everyone in the present day as well) he’ll need to turn the tables on his greatest nemesis. As the forces of darkness slowly close in around them, one question Will he defeat this enemy before the future of Minecraft is changed forever?

I like this book because I think it was very frustrating for herobrine when Gameknight999 thought of a plan and defeated Herobrine in the end. I also think that it was very cool how Notch appeared at the end of the book and made a lot of mobs go to the nether. Overall I think this book was a good ending to a part of the series (Not the whole series).

I enjoyed this book because I love MINECRAFT!!!!!!!!!! I also enjoyed this book because I liked the part when Gameknight999 (disguised as Smithy) battled Herobrine. I also enjoyed this book because I liked the part when Gameknight999 told Carpenter about the Land of Dreams.

Herobrine's War is a really good book. Especially since, well I used to play Minecraft, the game. Anyway, I just love how they make a video game into like an action movie, except inside a book. As most people know, Herobrine is a virus inside Minecraft games, and I just love how Gameknight999 did everything for the village. I recommend this book to anyone who plays Minecraft. I say that because in order to understand the book, you have to know about Minecraft.

I said this about the last one, and it's true for this one too: this one is better than the previous book. It's written better on a micro-scale at least.

The reason I rate it even lower than book two is because of the ending. Please, people, don't end your stories with Deus Ex Machina. Thank you.

The book "The Birth of Herobrine book three; Herobrine's War" by Mark Cheverton is about a human trapped in Minecraft [player who really isn't a player] who is at war with Herobrine. This one is the worst one so far. Herobrine completely surrounds him but, he still somehow makes it away with most of his warriors. I recommend this book to anyone who loves action books.

I liked this book because GameKnight was human and herobrine was immortal. also, GameKnight did'nt have as much power as herobrine did. But GameKnight stood up to herobrine and beat him. Another reason is because I felt like I was in Minecraft.
