Summary
Learn the tragic origins of the wicked Arch-Illager in this official Minecraft novel， a prequel to Minecraft Dungeons！
Brave heroes have banded together to take a perilous journey through the war-torn Overworld to defeat the Arch-Illager and his formidable army。 But how did that army come to be？ And just where did the Arch-Illager come from？
The terrible truth behind the Arch-Illager is that he never asked for ultimate power。 Known as Archie， this little Illager is bullied by his fellow Illagers and mistrusted by fearful Villagers。 Archie only ever wanted a place to call home， but he finds himself shunned by all。 As he wanders through deep forests and up craggy mountains， he stumbles upon a dark cavern-with a sinister secret waiting inside。
Archie discovers an object that whispers to him promises of power: the Orb of Dominance。 With it， Archie realizes he can wield incredible magic and reshape a world that turned its back on him。 All he needs to do is exactly what it tells him 。 。 。
After all， it's called the Orb of Dominance for a reason， right？ But is it named for the way Archie uses it-or is it using him？

Brings the game alive！My son and I took turns reading this together。 Compared to other books in this series， this one was very well written and helped bring the Dungeons game alive。 I have never played but now I understand what my son is saying when he goes on and on about the game。 ;）

This book actually surprised me。 I went into it excited to read another Minecraft novel （it’s been over a year since I last read one） and it was going to tell the backstory of the Arch Illiger， what’s not to like？ In the cut scene at the beginning of the Minecraft Dungeons game， it tricks you into thinking that the moment Archie picks up the Orb， he immediately turns evil， so I began to worry when I wasn’t even halfway through the book yet and he was already picking up the Orb。 I was worried I w This book actually surprised me。 I went into it excited to read another Minecraft novel （it’s been over a year since I last read one） and it was going to tell the backstory of the Arch Illiger， what’s not to like？ In the cut scene at the beginning of the Minecraft Dungeons game， it tricks you into thinking that the moment Archie picks up the Orb， he immediately turns evil， so I began to worry when I wasn’t even halfway through the book yet and he was already picking up the Orb。 I was worried I would have to go through another Tallstar’s Revenge scenario （the book I read before this） where the main character constantly thinks and talks about getting revenge most of the book， leaving me board and annoyed with the character。 But it was actually a slow， believable proses。 I enjoyed it a lot！ 。。。more

This is the first in a new Minecraft series aimed at Tweens focusing on Archie an Illager who is thrown under the bus by the only other Illager survivor of a clash first with Zombies and then the hero Karl。 He is kicked out of the Illager compound and he is taken in by Villagers who then throw him out when Karl appears and interferes with Archie's peaceful existence。 He then comes upon the Orb of Dominance which gives Archie increable power and the Orb is able to enter Archie's thoughts and enco This is the first in a new Minecraft series aimed at Tweens focusing on Archie an Illager who is thrown under the bus by the only other Illager survivor of a clash first with Zombies and then the hero Karl。 He is kicked out of the Illager compound and he is taken in by Villagers who then throw him out when Karl appears and interferes with Archie's peaceful existence。 He then comes upon the Orb of Dominance which gives Archie increable power and the Orb is able to enter Archie's thoughts and encourages him to go back to the Illager's and convince them to become his army。 He does so and then they are to attack the village that he left and are faced with the undead and skeletons lead by a Necromancer who captures and makes a pact with Archie to help them gain more power。 Archie is a likable character and he wrestles with the tough choices he's encouraged to make but he becomes a villian which may turn off some readers。 I would only recommend for die-hard fans of Minecraft though non-Minecrafters might enjoy it， but there are definately better fantasy series for Tweens out there。 。。。more

I picked this book up at Walmart as a joke， but when I started reading it， I realized how genuinely good it is。 I am more than pleasantly surprised， I am elatedly shocked。It has one of my favorite concepts: good guy goes bad。 The character development was so believable， and throughout the story I kept rooting for two outcomes with equal passion: I wanted Archie to return to the light， but I also wanted to see complete and total carnage viewable from even the max rendering distance。I will definit I picked this book up at Walmart as a joke， but when I started reading it， I realized how genuinely good it is。 I am more than pleasantly surprised， I am elatedly shocked。It has one of my favorite concepts: good guy goes bad。 The character development was so believable， and throughout the story I kept rooting for two outcomes with equal passion: I wanted Archie to return to the light， but I also wanted to see complete and total carnage viewable from even the max rendering distance。I will definitely be checking out other books by Matt Forbeck。 His word choice and the way he creates these beautiful and exciting images and scenes is a gift。 I feel spoiled as a reader getting to appreciate his work！ 。。。more

The best Minecraft book yet， although it would have been even better with Jack Black’s narration。 It sets the reader up perfectly for the Minecraft Dungeons video game。

I really liked this book and I think it ties perfectly into the video game。 I recommend this book to anyone who likes Minecraft dungeons or wants to know the origins。 I think Matt Forbeck did a really good job explaining why in the world a tiny little Illager has an all-powerful orb and army of Illagers and undead mobs。 I loved this book and it's one of the few I can read again and again and have the same experience I had the first time！ I really liked this book and I think it ties perfectly into the video game。 I recommend this book to anyone who likes Minecraft dungeons or wants to know the origins。 I think Matt Forbeck did a really good job explaining why in the world a tiny little Illager has an all-powerful orb and army of Illagers and undead mobs。 I loved this book and it's one of the few I can read again and again and have the same experience I had the first time！ 。。。more

Read with my 10 and 8 year old。 This is the prequel to the game: Minecraft Dungeons。 They enjoyed it。 It was quite ‘wordy’ with the dialogue （for reading out loud） and I’d say it’s better for middle school age。
