To Mika, for the singular joy that is the blessing of every parent
Having spent many years wordsmithing, I have to say that my experience writing the first two editions of this book was one of the most enjoyable projects with which I’ve ever been engaged. I can point to several reasons. First, Minecraft truly is an astonishing work of technical art. Its endless limits create a canvas that can only bring joy to a w...

Imagine a world where the possibilities are the limits of your own imagination! Welcome to Minecraft, one of the most interesting open-ended games ever produced. From the first moment I started playing this game, back in the beta, to today’s extraordinary experience, Minecraft has developed into a tour de force of absolutely splendid gameplay—one t...
Throughout this book, you’ll see that I have called out some items as Notes, Tips, and Cautions—all of which are explained here. NOTE Notes point out ancillary bits of information that are helpful but not crucial. They often make for an interesting meander. TIP Tips point out a useful bit of information to help you solve a problem. They’re useful i...
You’ll also see that I’ve included crafting recipes throughout this book. I’ve included the actual ingredients in the text, so just match the pattern you see to create the item, as shown here for a wooden pickaxe. It’s easy, and you’ll be surprised how quickly you can whip them up after just a few uses.
In addition to the information packed between the covers of this book, I’ve put together a complete guide to all the crafting recipes online. Feel free to download. Visit http://www. quepublishing.com/register to register your book and download your free PDF copy.

Whenever you head away from your secure shelter, there is always a reasonably high risk of death. Creepers, lava pits, long falls—they can all do you in. While your new life when you respawn is only a moment away, the real danger is that any items you’ve collected will drop from your character’s inventory at the place of death. You’ll have about f...
Chests are undoubtedly useful; it’s difficult to survive without them. But you can’t transport a chest’s contents with you. Enter the Ender Chest, which is like storage in the cloud. An Ender Chest isn’t cheap to make. You’ll need eight obsidian blocks, obtained by combining lava with water, or via regular mining and caving, and one Eye of Ender, c...
There’s a key difference between the Minecraft world on the first day and the second day. In a word, mobs (hostile ones, to be specific). Mobs spawn only in dark areas, and some only during the night, so if you are outside during your first day and stay in well-lit areas, you’ll be reasonably safe. By the second day, however, mobs have had a chance...
Your second day is the perfect time to gather food and other resources and to take a quick survey of the landscape surrounding your first shelter. In particular, you want to find some-where suitable for your first outdoor shelter. Keep an eye out for any of the following: Passive mobs—Chickens, pigs , rabbits, sheep, and cows all provide a ready s...
Congratulations! You’ve now learned everything you need to know to monitor your health, improve your tools for better longevity, avoid getting lost on your travels, and create your first mob-proof outdoor shelter. These are the keys to Minecraft. Just remember to head back to your chest often to store the valuables you’ve gathered. Or build other c...
