I think Minecraft is the greatest game in the history of the world, and so did my two children who literally begged me to write Minecraft stories for them when they were young. That is why I have dedicated my life to writing Minecraft-inspired books to share with everyone!

For readers under 9, I recommend the first nine books of my Baby Zeke the Chicken Jockey series, my Mob Mania Tales, the Peter and the Player's Palace series, and my three-book Spider Chicken series as well as Creeptastic, A Notchmas Carol, and most of my standalone books.

For readers ages 9+, I recommend all of my other books, including the Diary of a Surfer Villager, Ballad of Winston the Wandering Trader, and Glitch Guardians series.

I am going to write more Glitch Guardians books in the next few months to get that series going. I do have an idea for a short series (maybe three books), but I probably wouldn't start that until sometime after summer.

Also, I may write a non-Minecraft book and release it this summer, but that is still in the contemplation stages.(less)

LSV6 is here!!!

Hi, everyone!

The sixth book in my Legacy of the Surfer Villager series is here. The book is called "R.I." What is RI? Well, you'll just have to read the book to find out.

I hope you enjoy it. BTW, this is the second-longest Minecraft book I've ever written! Seriously. Only SV20 is longer.

I hope you all liked this conclusion to the Noble Dark One's back story.

The last two books of the backstory were really difficult for me to write. I think because it really needed to sync with some events in the Surfer Villager series.

DarkWolf1 Dr. Block? I have my own profile. And I was wondering if you want to come check it out. Here's the link:

http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/12...

You know EnderDragon544 right, Dr. Block? Well, I'm EnderDragon544. I just changed my name to DarkWolf1. Why? Cause I think it's cool. And if other people want to check out my profile, that's fine with me. All they will have to do is push the link.

And there's not a lot on my profile, sooooo…

But if you still want to see it, go ahead.

This girl, DarkWolf1, is outta here.


DarkWolf1 Not gonna lie, Dr. Block is the best minecraft author I have ever seen. And BTW, all of his books deserve 5 star reviews. Dr. Block may be the BEST minecraft author anyone has ever seen.

Everything I said is true.


Fake Beluga :) wow many comments for an author :)
