If you’re looking for a gift for a Minecraft fan this holiday, the newly released World of Minecraft book would probably be a big hit. Created by Mojang Studios and published by Random House Worlds earlier this week, The World of Minecraft is a 224-page hardcover book packed with rare production materials, in-game lore, and real-world history about the game’s development, making it the most comprehensive book of Minecraft information to date.
For the collectors out there, there’s also The World of Minecraft Special Edition, a numbered limited edition with a more premium design and extra goodies. Amazon is offering a 20% preorder discount on this very expensive limited edition ahead of its publication on October 29.
Check out both books below. And if you’re interested in more Minecraft reading material, we have a comprehensive list of all of the Minecraft novels, graphic novels, and budget-friendly graphic novels at the bottom of this story.
Minecraft novels, reference books, and more
Minecraft has been turned into many novels and graphic novels over the past several years. For early readers, your best bet is to check out the Woodsword and Stonesword series, both of which are available in complete box sets with hardcover books. The Woodsword Chronicles 6-Book Box Set is available for only $34 (was $60), and the Stonesword Saga 6-Book Box Set is also discounted to $34 (was $60).
For middle grade and young adult readers, the ongoing series of standalone Minecraft novels offers plenty of exciting reading material. You can start by picking up the Minecraft 3-Book Box Set, which compiles the first three books in the series. The first novel, The Island, was written by World War Z author Max Brooks.
On the graphic novel side, the first three volumes are compiled in this box set for $27 (was $33). You can also get all three volumes in the Wither Without You story arc for $29 ($33).
