Meet the next big thing in the world of official Minecraft novels: zombies!

<Looking after a little sibling can be a real headache . . . especially when they&rsquo;re&#160;a zombie&#160;trying to eat your brains!<
&#160;
Life is good for Bobbie in the sleepy village of Plaintown. Sure, her villager parents only ever say &ldquo;Hrm,&rdquo; but you pick up the local language quickly. And maybe her little brother, Johnny, is always getting into trouble, but the village&rsquo;s iron golem is there to look out for him. And, yeah, things are too busy for exploring when you&rsquo;re the only one in town who ever takes their hands out of their sleeves. But maybe that&rsquo;s for the best. After all, there are things out there beyond the torchlight that are better handled by adventurers.
&#160;
But one night, a stranger comes to Plaintown&mdash;and he&rsquo;s followed by a horde of ravenous zombies!&#160;Bobbie&rsquo;s village is overrun, and her world is turned upside down&#160;as her friends, family, and neighbors fall victim to the zombies&rsquo; endless appetite.
&#160;
Life is not so good for Ben, an adventurer with nothing left to his name but the armor on his back. When dawn&rsquo;s light shows him an abandoned village, he sees it as a chance to pick through the wreckage and get himself back on track. What he wasn&rsquo;t expecting to run into was a desperate girl with a baby zombie villager on a leash.
&#160;
Bobbie and Johnny are the only ones left . . . and her brother&rsquo;s a lot greener and a lot bitier than he was last night. There&rsquo;s still some of Johnny rattling around the little&#160;zombie&#160;monster&rsquo;s mind; Bobbie just knows it. And Ben might know a way to bring him back.

As the two journey across the Overworld, dragging Johnny along (literally), they brave dangerous depths, terrifying mobs, and an expanding mystery. Was the&#160;zombie&#160;attack on Bobbie&rsquo;s village really just bad luck? Where did the rest of the zombies go? And how exactly do you take care of a little brother who can&rsquo;t stop trying to eat you?
&#160;
Hold onto your brains&mdash;and your bows&mdash;and get ready to enter <Minecraft: Zombies!<...
