        Grades 3-5 Minecraft is an unstoppable deluge, so it's no surprise it's making its way into comics, too. This unofficial Minecraft-based adventure follows village girl Phoenix, who doesn't fit in with everyone else, including her own family. She has a small nose and red hair, and she dreams of seeing the world outside the high walls that surround the village. One day, she breaks the rules and ventures into the woods, but when her brother, Xander, follows, a moaning zombie bites and infects him. Now Phoenix must leave the village to find the magical cure to heal Xander, and along the way, she'll have to deal with wolves, creepers, and a witch who schemes to use Phoenix for her own purposes. The highly pixilated art reflects the distinctive animation-style of the game and looks almost like screen grabs, which will only endear it more to young readers who love to play Minecraft. The book reads like the first volume of a continuing adventure and will leave kids wanting more.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2016, American Library Association.)
