    About this ebook

    A new short story offered by New York Times Bestselling author, Mark Cheverton, this story is the prequel to the Gameknight999 series of unofficial Minecraft novels that have been published around the world, with over a million copies in print. It documents how Gameknight999's epic adventure really began . . . and how the legend, and the nightmare, were both born.

    A virus was launched into the Minecraft servers. It was not just any virus; this one was the spawn of artificially intelligent software. It's purpose was to spread out and destroy. But the designer of that virus didn't plan on their lethal viral code interacting with the game in such an unpredictable way. Instead of just penetrating the digital defenses of the Minecraft servers and laying waste to the computerized universe, it instead modified the software ever so slightly, awakening all of the villagers. And now they were alive, as was the virus. Confused and scared, the virus and the villagers must come to grips with their sudden spark of life. The sense of freedom and joy were incredible, but so were their fears, for now they could be destroyed.

    Tensions from the past still run deep as the villagers have faint memories of the monsters of Minecraft. The virus changed everything, but now felt a loneliness that began to eat at his soul like a malignant tumor, causing anger and hate to fester and grow. Will the virus find a place to fit in with the NPCs, or will he make his own place, with the edge of a sword?

    Mark Cheverton

    New York Times bestselling author Mark Cheverton grew up in Southern California, going through high school and college. After college, Mark taught high school Physics and Math for many years. While teaching, he earned a Master's degree in Physics and conducted research on planetary atmospherics. After moving to the east coast, he started doing research for a Fortune 100 company in the fields of machine vision and additive manufacturing. While working as a researcher, he self-published his first MINECRAFT-inspired novel, "Invasion of the Overworld," in 2013, a novel also inspired by his son. He didn't really expect the book to be significant, but when it reached #29 on Amazon's Top 100, the publishers started calling; Mark knew he'd struck a nerve with kids. After 10 years, Mark has written 26 novels, many of which appear on the New York Times, USA Today, and Publisher's Weekly bestsellers lists. They've been published in 31 countries, translated into 27 languages, and over 2 million copies have been sold worldwide. Currently, Mark is working on a middle-grade fantasy series called The Order of the Stones series. Book 1, "Facing the Beast Within," will be published in September 2023, with Book 2, "Cameron and the Shadow-wraiths," being released in 2024.
