Kdo jsem? Kde to jsem? A proč je všechno z kostek? Vyplavený na pusté dlouhé pláži, nemám moc času na přemýšlení, protože se začíná stmívat. Se západem slunce se vynoří nový, zvláštní svět – svět umrlců, kostlivců a nekonečného proudu žhavé lávy. Musím si obstarat něco k jídlu, ale hlavně se nechci sám stát kořistí... Zdejší řád a pravidla nedávají vždy smysl, jedině odvaha a nápady mi pomůžou odhalit tajemství ostrova a přežít.

In the new official Minecraft novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Minecraft: The Island, a stranded hero stumbles upon another castaway-and discovers that teamwork might just be the secret to survival.

Wandering a vast, icy tundra, the explorer has never felt more alone. Is there anything out here? Did I do the right thing by leaving the safety of my island? Should I give up and go back? So many questions, and no time to ponder-not when dark is falling and dangerous mobs are on the horizon.

Gurgling zombies and snarling wolves lurk in the night, and they're closing in. With nowhere to hide, the lone traveler flees up a mountain, trapped and out of options . . . until a mysterious figure arrives, fighting off the horde singlehandedly. The unexpected savior is Summer, a fellow castaway and master of survival in these frozen wastes.

Excited to find another person in this strange, blocky world, the explorer teams up with Summer, whose impressive mountain fortress as a safe haven . . . for now. But teamwork is a new skill for two people used to working alone. If they want to make it home, they will have to learn to work together-or risk losing everything.

As the ash and chaos from Mount Rainier’s eruption swirled and finally settled, the story of the Greenloop massacre has passed unnoticed, unexamined . . . until now. The journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the town’s bloody wreckage, capture a tale too harrowing—and too earth-shattering in its implications—to be forgotten. In these pages, Max Brooks brings Kate’s extraordinary account to light for the first time, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own extensive investigations into the massacre and the legendary beasts behind it. Kate’s is a tale of unexpected strength and resilience, of humanity’s defiance in the face of a terrible predator’s gaze, and, inevitably, of savagery and death.

Yet it is also far more than that.

Because if what Kate Holland saw in those days is real, then we must accept the impossible. We must accept that the creature known as Bigfoot walks among us—and that it is a beast of terrible strength and ferocity.

Part survival narrative, part bloody horror tale, part scientific journey into the boundaries between truth and fiction, this is a Bigfoot story as only Max Brooks could chronicle it—and like none you’ve ever read before.

Знедолений одинак потрапляє на безлюдний пляж. Мандрівник оглядає узбережжя, намагаючись згадати хто він, як тут опинився і чому все навколо зроблено з блоків?
Його перше завдання — пошук їжі. Наступне — не перетворитися на їжу. Схоже, що на острові є й інші... як-от орда зомбі, що з'являється з настанням ночі. Необхідно знайти вихід із
