regardless of the rest of the of the book. i do kinda like the fact the the author thought of that when given the quality target it could hav been completely ignored
The series that "Invasion of the Overworld" is from is actually surprisingly very good. It starts out as a TRON knockoff mixed with an anti-bullying psa, but evolves over the many books in to something actually really cool. Give it a chance if you haven't already.
I have like damn near every book pre 2016. I own the 4 guides, that blockopedia thing, the magazine and some weird survival strategy guide with latin words on the cover.
I remember buying a “Hacks for Games for Gamer” book in the 3rd grade for 20 dollars at a book fair at school because I thought it had some sick secrets when in reality 90% of the games were ones I’ve never played and the other were things I already knew. I hid the book in my closet because I felt ashamed for wasting money on it.
Real talk, the *official* Minecraft novels are really good. The Island is honestly one of my favorite books ever, and it's crazy to think the same guy that wrote World War Z, wrote Minecraft: The Island
@@IcyDiamond Diary of a Minecraft Zombie is copyright infringement. Though it is something, I think this person's book will be better than something a two year old could write.
I just hover over the video and see the certified hood classic "Diary of a farting creeper" Diamondbolt is a true nexus for culture, both bold and brap.
These things are the best, because you can tell which ones were written by people who have no idea what the game is. I once found an unofficial guide to Pokémon that suggested all sorts of things, including having more of the same type moves on a Pokémon.
Theres an actually good Minecraft diary series called "Diary of a 8-Bit Warrior." It follows a villager who wishes to become a warrior. Theres actually alot of lore in it. You should give it a read if you have not.
You can immediately tell that most of these books are written by tired parents of their hyper gamer children... and I kinda almost respect that.... *almost*
Not gonna lie though, the official Minecraft books seem to be well written for kids books, I browse through them at work sometimes. I think it'd be fun to go through official video game books as well, like there's an interesting one for Ico I read a while back and God of War but you may be able to find a bunch more
my life has been on a downword spiral ever since i could walk but thanks to diary of a farting creeper my life finally has meaning in this bleak wasteland i call home, so thank you the Mr. Diamondbolt for this gift i shall cherish this forever
Something about reading a unofficial books feels curse and awesome at the same time. Telling you a lot of information about the game or the story behind the game etc
I remember my parents getting my younger brother 2 unofficial Minecraft books for his birthday, “Herobrines Revenge” and “The Sword of Herobrine”, and I remember reading both of those books and strangely loving the series. They weren’t the best books I’ve read, but they’re still worth a read. Especially since it’s not related to Fortnite.
Oh god, not this again. You're seriously doing the "Minecraft good Fortnite bad" thing? I mean I despise Epic and most of their modern stuff sucks but this circle jerk is so dumb.
I should mention that all these years later I still have an entire shelf in my room dedicated to Minecraft books. I was obsessed with them, I just counted 44 of them. My favorite series is Elementia Chronicles, it’s actually insanely good. I think all the ones I have are good, a lot of them are by Mark Cheverton.
Diary of a minecraft zombie was the most poggers series ever. Edit: just googled it, apparently there's 32 or these things. Might have to buy all of these just to fulfill my childhood fantasy.
My local bookstore has a manga shelf (Japanese Comics) and they moved it to another shelf. When I walked over to the best shelf in the store, what was standing there was a Fortnite unofficial. The only reason I didn’t burn down the store was they had the balls to put the bible under fiction.
Those diary zombie ones were my childhood. I used to read those all the time,over and over again,I donated them around 2 years ago, and last year I bought a couple of the books
I remember buying the ‘Diary of a Minecraft Zombie Pixelmon’ book when I was younger and MUCH dumber. I look back on it thinking, “What the hell was I doing!?!?”. At least I learned from my mistakes… God knows I’ve learned from that mistake. I’ll just stick to Diary of a Wimpy kid for all of eternity, because Jeff will never stop making them.
Me: “Wow, this is a pretty funny video” Diamondbolt: *puts links to all the books he talked about in the description* Me: “Also add simply astounding to that”
"And if you're curious, he does indeed escape prison at the end-" FFS dude, you can't just go putting spoilers in your videos like that! I just wasted four dollars on that book!
I remember my grandparents bought me one of those unofficial guides for my birthday I couldn’t help laughing I felt so goddamn bad although I think they kind of bought it as a joke I really hope they did
The trapped in Fortnite books are basically (from my understanding because I haven’t watched it) SAO. It’s said they need to get a certain amount of wins to get out of the game.
I remember having two unofficial Minecraft books, “escape from the overworld” and it’s sequel. They were fine, and they felt like actual attempts at storytelling
I will say, the Gameknight999 books by Mark Cheverton that you had at the end, are actually really good books. Stupid 9 year old me loved them, and even stupider 13 year old me still loved them.
I vaguely remember having a digital book called "diary of a Minecraft bat" when I was really young. Don't ask me about what it's about because I completely forgot or repressed that dark phase of my life.
I remember the Diary of a Minecraft Steve books were free on kindle when i was 10. they went from basic Minecraft stuff to doing a Game of Thrones parody within like 10 books.
I was going through my local library and found those Minecraft Zombie books, and there are OVER 30 OF THEM. I also saw E-Boy, it was quite a heated gamer moment.
I remeber reading the 1st herobrine book once when i was like, 12. I think it was in the world of minecraft but i also can't double check that because i donated it to charity like, half a year ago lol
diary of a Minecraft zombie was an absolute hit in my school. you could hardly find ANY in the library. The only one i remember getting my hands on was book #18 "in too deep". An absolute masterpiece. Although i would say the ending was a bit bad. I really wasn't expecting that plot-twist when the drowned was revealed to be prince/king all along (look, i don't remember everything), no matter how many times i read it. ... petition for D.O.A.M.Z to get an animated tv series
One time in 5th grade, one of my classmates decided to grab my throat and pin me to the wall in front of his crush to seem tough. His crush started screaming so he stopped, and he gave me a “minecraft hacks” book so I didn’t tell. Great stuff.
"You need to know how to aim to be good at an fps" .... my mind is blown next thing you'll tell me that in order to be good at platformers I need to learn how to jump
How it feels to play with the kid that has all the Minecraft tips and survival guides Him: do not misunderstand this is not power of your creation! Me wondering how he’s so good: is this the power of a god?!
Did you know there are official Fortnite DC comics. I remember they generated a lot of hype when they were released! The comics actually centred around the story of Fortnite and not on the gameplay

When you think about it unofficial books are basically just bootlegs but lazier and somehow still legal.
Some are actually pretty great though
There is actually 32 diary’s of a minecraft zombies books according to the internet. 33 if you count the special thing
I should mention that all these years later I still have an entire shelf in my room dedicated to Minecraft books. I was obsessed with them, I just counted 44 of them.
My favorite series is Elementia Chronicles, it’s actually insanely good. I think all the ones I have are good, a lot of them are by Mark Cheverton.
Bro the Elementia Chronicles was goated
I actually got the book at 6:25 for my brother as a joke gift. It was outdated in a week when a new season started.
Diary of a minecraft zombie was the most poggers series ever.
