Die in real life? Stuck in the game, Gameknight discovers Minecraft’s best-kept secret, something not even the game’s programmers realize: the creatures within the game are alive! He will have to stay one step ahead of the sharp claws of zombies and pointed fangs of spiders, but he’ll also have to learn to make friends and work as a team if he has any chance of surviving the Minecraft war his arrival has started.
This action-packed tribute to the worldwide computer game phenomenon is a runaway publishing smash and the perfect companion for Minecraft fans of all ages.

If you love Minecraft, like the 10 million players out there all over the world, then this is a must read. You'll fall in love with the characters, Gameknight999, the king of the griefers, the wise and knowledgable Crafter, Shawny - the strategist, and of course you'll love to hate the evil villain, Erebus, the Endermen King. This is an epic tale of exciting battles, sorrowful losses and adventures yet to be told. You won't be disappointed.

***SPOILER ALERT***
Have you ever played a virtual game so much that you feel you are in the game? For Gameknight999, that’s not a feeling. It’s reality. Invasion of the Overworld is a book by Mark Cheverton, and is a Science Fiction book, since you can’t really get transported to a virtual game in a computer (yet). My opinion on this book was that I didn’t like the way the story was told. It had a good storyline, yes, and a large vocabulary of words, but it wasn’t exactly told in a way I would accept. It’s hard to explain my feelings, but it was still a very good book.
This book is taken place in present day time, and in Gameknight999’s basement and Overworld of Minecraft. In the Overworld, the story mainly takes place in Crafter’s village. After trolling and being a cruel person in Minecraft, Gameknight999 is sent to the digital game after accidentally turning on one of his father's inventions. He is able to survive a night, but he yearns for answers. He travels to a nearby village, and there they tell him to see the Crafter, and Crafter explains everything. Gameknight is a “User-that-is-not-a-user”, and has triggered all the mobs in Minecraft to attempt to grab more XP (experience) orbs from killing users and villagers so they can go up to the next server, closer to the Source. The Source is something that will allow Minecraft Mobs to travel to the real world, and take it over while killing everyone in the process. Gameknight is the only hope against it, so he must fight, since all the villagers arms are linked together. Crafter leads Gameknight to a place where all the objects in Minecraft are crafted. He tells to everyone that Gameknight will lead them, but Gameknight isn’t so sure, so he gets angry and breaks a crafting bench while a villager is still working, allowing him to use his hands. Then, since they are able to fight, Gameknight calls for his only friend, Shawny, to teleport to him. He does, and he is convinced of what is going on, while Gameknight is informed that Minecraft blocks you from everything once you die. Shawny puts defenses around the village strategically, and the next night monsters attack, led by the leader of the endermen, Erebus. The monsters are finally defeated, but not forever. Gameknight tells Shawny to build a trap to fight and defeat the mobs on their server once and for all. Shawny needs Gameknight to lead the mobs to the place of the trap, and Crafter comes with, against Gameknight’s will, but not before naming Digger “Crafter”, an NPC who's wife was killed by Gameknight. Crafter is now a normal NPC, but Gameknight still calls him Crafter. They travel until they reach the trap, until they are almost overwhelmed with monsters. Shawny somehow gets many Minecraft users to help them, and they fight the thousands of monsters. The first trap is broken, so Crafter sacrifices himself and destroys all the mobs. Again, the second trap breaks, and Gameknight follows his friend and sacrifices himself. Just when he thought he was dead, Gameknight spawns in another server with Crafter because they were overloaded with XP, but Crafter warns Gameknight there are still many more battles ahead. That was only one server. This is a person vs. society type of story, since Gameknight999 has to go up against Erebus and his army of monsters. Ina sense, it could also be person vs fate, since Gameknight999 is part of a prophecy that was triggered by him. In my opinion, the theme is to be good to other people, and they shall be good unto you.
Something I noticed is that the title is related to the book because the book is about a gamer named Gameknight999 who triggers a prophecy that starts an invasion or siege of mobs that attack Gameknight, his friend, Shawny, and all the villagers and animals. The title is “The Invasion of the Overworld”, and since the Minecraft world is called the Overworld and since monsters are attacking more than usual, it is an invasion.
The third person point of view in this story helps the story because the narrator is able to use more descriptive words, and I am also able to see the main character how he is when others see him, just like when it shows the main character in first person seeing their friends or enemies. It gives you different feelings toward the main character when you see how they are from the outside and not from the inside, or vice versa.
In the book, I was surprised near the end when all those famous YouTubers and Minecrafters came to help Gameknight. Gameknight is a hacker, modder, an griefer who would bully others for his enjoyment. I knew that the YouTubers and Minecrafters were there to save Minecraft and not help Gameknight, but I was just surprised by the fact that they would listen to him.
An interesting and useful thing I learned in the book was that if you are nice to others, in the end it will pay off. When you are mean to them and you treat them unfairly, it will all add up in the end, positively or negatively, you choose. The actions you do now affect your actions and others reactions in the future.
I would give this book a 4 star rating, because as I said in the first paragraph, I didn’t necessarily like the way it was told. It was very good, but I’m just noticing now that one of the problems was the fact that the important and dramatic (feelings) parts went by a bit too fast, and I didn’t have time to take it all in. I would recommend this book to people who like Sci-Fi books, books with battles in them, and gamers, since this book is about a game; Minecraft. This was a very good book indeed, but think about the future - there are Virtual Reality filters (Oculus Rift), and there could be a turn in technology. You could experience games - for real.

Over the previous two weeks, I’ve been reading a Minecraft novel called Invasion of the Overworld by Mark Cheverton. I enjoyed all the quality features of this book including reading about the survival strategies of and consequences faced by the protagonist, Gameknight999. Friendship is a key in this book and is mentioned frequently throughout this novel. Invasion of the Overworld is a unique book that is entertaining for Minecraft fans of all ages and I would surely recommend this book to any player of the survival strategy computer game.
This book explores some of the challenges people face when they cheat. A twelve year old boy whose minecraft name is Gameknight999 is a troller and a hacker. These activities are a form of cheating. Gameknight999 faces many challenges throughout the book due to his cheating, including his biggest challenge of all, which occurs when he gets sucked into Minecraft from one of his dad’s complex inventions.
The novel presented basic survival skills along with a great storyline. For any newcomer to Minecraft that loves reading and would like to get into Minecraft, I strongly suggest reading this book. This book teaches the ins and outs of surviving in Minecraft along with the effects of trolling or hacking.
Friendship is a topic that comes up repeatedly. Ultimately, friendship issues cause Gameknight999 to want to take back all the bad deeds he has committed. At the end of the story when he has to make a trap to save the village, almost no one will help him because he had victimized them. They would rather he suffer. Gameknight999 must have felt sorrowfully about the mischievous things he had done and probably wanted to make friends with his former victims.
After reading this book, I would rate it about 4 stars for the reasons discussed above. Friendship is a big key in this book along with survival skills and consequences of cheating. This special book proves the statement “cheaters never prosper” throughout the whole book. I am extremely excited for the sequels Battle for the Nether which is coming out in 2014 and The End which is being released in 2015.

- Ain’t no way a group of actual mc players equipped with at least iron armor and some in diamond players actually losing to a couple thousand monsters that are just zombies spiders skeletons and creepers. Like no way, enchanted diamond armor makes you basically impervious to that.
- I know the fights are meant to be serious and emotional but having played some Minecraft before, its hard to get immersed when the mental visual is not impressive
- Erebus is a terrible villain name, it’s as threatening as Nolan
- I wish I knew why Shawny was given a backstory why he was friends with the mc
- the idea of being a sentient villager in mc and not having means to defend yourself and your family cuz you weren’t programmed to uncross your hands is actually horrifying I’m never fucking with NPCs ever again in games 😭
- the authors note in the beginning Explaining the backstory of the book made me sad :(, the author recounting how his kid asked him “how and why people would do this (blow up his creations in mc)” was upsetting. And the griefing video from the assholes is actually on YouTube 👺. Awful.

We read this for family book group. For kids who LOVE Minecraft, I would give it more stars. For adults... the writing is not good. Nate didn't finish and didn't like it while this is one of Alex's favorite books. Alex said he liked the suspense of the books, which prompted us to talk about other suspense books he might enjoy.
Book group was held on the beach and dessert was brownies.

I enjoyed this book because I love MINECRAFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also enjoyed this book because I liked the part when Gameknight999 and Crafter saved one server from the people on the server. If Gameknight999 and Crafter hadn't saved the server, the people on the server would be kicked out of Minecraft.

I'm an 8 year old girl and my name is Geeta and I have read the Invasion of the Overworld. I really like this book and I recommend this book for at least 3rd graders and up.
I think that this book is a life-teaching story that life is a gift and don't give it up easily. In this book Gameknight999 plays Minecraft but he is a griefer (Griefers are people who ruin things for other players) but when his father's latest invention, the Digitizer, sucks him into Minecraft, he is afraid about what is going to happen if he dies. Then Gameknight999 realizes that he needs to start working together with other people.He deafeted a spider with his own hands and he felt pain when the spider hit him. He makes a hidey-hole and cooks some of the meat. When he finds a village, he finds out that each village has a Crafter and villagers have lives in the game. Then he figures out what the Prophesy is and every NPC in Minecraft knows what it is. And then the Crafter explains to him that there is a Gateway of Light at the Source of all the servers in Minecraft. Gameknight999 figures out that if all the mobs in Minecraft destroy everything living in the Minecraft servers, they will reach the Source and if the mobs destroy that, they will go through the Gateway of Light and enter the Physical World- Our world. And Gameknight999 was the User-that-is-not-a-User and that person has a Quest to do. He has to kill all of the mobs (not alone) in each server and close the Gateway of Light. That will stop all the mobs from coming into the Physical World.
There are more books of the Gameknight999 series. I'm going to post my next review after I read the next book- Battle for the Nether.

Invasion of the Overworld is a typical Minecraft book. Even though the plot is ok, it still has that sort of feeling it won't be that good. One of the strengths is the character development. Even though the plot may be bad, there has been some good character development. The big example of that character development is Gameknight turning from a griefer in chapter 1 to the one who helped defended the village in the middle of the book. One of the major weaknesses is the writing. The writing isn't that okay, as it looks a bit unprofessional and some minor grammar errors that you can ignore. I should say I give the book an OK rating. I can recommend this to the younger Minecraft fans, as they don't care about what they could give other than "Oh, Minecraft" and just slowly read it. I wouldn't care about reading the series after all as this may be what I wasn't expecting.

This book has a fairly intense start through the first two chapters. The main character has several stereotypical gamer traits. He engages in griefing, teasing, sabatoging, and other game play forms of bullying. There are several uses of the word “damn” and a few noticeable grammar errors.
This definitely has a first print run and a bit of a feeler to see if there is a market for more. It appears that the author intends this book to be part of a series. He has an invitation for readers to send him images of Minecraft scenes that the correlate to various scenes in the book. I think that is a cool idea. There is also a request for feedback from the readers.
This book should be fine for readers as low as grade 7 or perhaps a strong grade 6 student?

Since maybe 35% of my life is Minecraft, I read this book! I was browsing amazon when I came across a book called invasion of the over world by Mark Cheverton. I had never heard of this book or author so I decided to give it a try. and it was worth it!
in this novel it is about a player named Gameknight999 who likes to play Minecraft, especially griefing other things people have made in the game. But one day his fathers creation sends him into the game itself, he was actually in Minecraft! Now he was suddenly put into a journey to save Minecraft with his friends Crafter and Shawny, and all the villagers in the game! I loved this book and I will maybe read more books by this author, and if Mark is reading this, GOOD JOB MARK!!! :D

This book is amazing i mean amazing i got so hoked so fast and i read it every day and it was not like i had to read it i WANTED to read it it was so realistic that it fellt like the story was happening around me it sort of like a 3D movie. so the book was about a kid and he loves grifing houses in mine craft then by mistake he turns on a dissembler that his dad made and it sucked him into mine craft. the book is so much better then how i said it or explained it. so if you like this book the other books are going to come out in 2014 and 2015.
ps. If you think mine craft is weird and a wast of your time i still want you to read this great book.

The author needs a better editor. Whoever did this missed A LOT of errors. This felt like a rip off of Tron and the Matrix to me, I thought it was cliche and shallow. My son loved it though, he would give it 5 stars, and I guess that's the authors target audience so my opinion isn't worth much to him.

This story is about a griefer named gameknight999 who was sucked into the world of minecraft, and now he needs to save the people living in minecraft. This is one of my favorite books by far. I would recommend this book to a person who likes minecraft

Un libro regular, yo sé que es para niños pero te entretiene si sos fan del juego.
Tiene varios errores y fallos y en lo que para mí gusto fue el peor y más evidente e irritante de todos fue la constante repetición de las "descripciones" por decirlo así de los monstruos en todas y cada una de las escenas que aparecían. No tardaba en aparecer un zombie o un esqueleto cuando el escritor tenía que decir que sus ojos encendidos estaban llenos de ira y odio por todo lo vivo....... y así lo repetía unas 2 millones de veces a lo largo de todo el libro, ESO NO SE HACE!!!!!!! Yo creo que con las 3 primeras veces que lo decía ya quedaba bastante claro.
Otro error muy notorio fue algo que yo llamo "El Síndrome de Juego de Tronos" que básicamente es poner a personajes muy muy muy jóvenes a tener actitudes y diálogos super adultos y maduros que la verdad chocan mucho y no van con el personaje que se intenta construir, en este caso el Gameknight999 tiene 12 años (o menos) y la verdad su manera de actuar no es para nada acorde a su edad.
De ahí en fuera es un libro digamos que entretenido, sin embargo no es un libro que releería ya que prácticamente Minecraft va demasiado actualizado y adelantado en comparación al mundo en donde se desarrolla el libro x lo que a estas alturas el libro es prácticamente obsoleto.

I fell in love with this book. This book is meant to be for kids but I'm a teenager btw. I used to play Minecraft back then but I stopped playing for some reason. And then I saw someone selling this series so I thought why not? I got hooked immediately after just reading the first chapter and before I knew it, I finished the book but then, a cliffhanger haha didn't really expect that for a children's book. I honestly learned a lot of life lessons in this book. Gameknight's adventure is so thrilling, there are lots of plot twist too. I laughed, cried, become thrilled and scared, it's such a good book. You will love the characters and the villains are kinda scary btw. The storytelling and the story itself is so good, they're very easy to understand and you can focus more on using your imagination than trying to understand deep words, maybe that's a pro and con.
If you're planning to buy this book, make sure to buy the series, it's not a standalone. I definitely recommend it specially if your kid likes to play Minecraft and to those non-players planning to buy this, you can use your imagination, I honestly forgot what monsters in Minecraft looked like so I let my imagination do the work. Happy reading!
