China, 1826. The sun is setting on the golden age of piracy, and
the legendary Red Banner Fleet, the scourge of the South China Sea,
is no more. Sheltered her whole life, Xiang desperately wants to
set sail and explore like her late father. Her only memento of him
is a plain gold pendant. But the pendant's true nature is revealed
when a mysterious girl named Anh steals it, only to return it to
Xiang in exchange for her help in decoding the tiny map scroll
hidden inside. Rumour has it that the legendary Dragon Queen had
one last treasure - the plunder of a thousand ports - hidden away
on an island shrouded in mist. Eager for adventure, Xiang joins Anh
and her crew in pursuit of the fabled treasure. But they soon find
that the sea - and those who sail it - are far more dangerous than
the legends led them to believe.
Unravel the mysteries of an extraordinary underwater world in this
official Minecraft novel! When three kids discover a mystery in an
abandoned Minecraft server, they must race against the clock to
uncover its secrets. Jake Thomas is always the new kid. His family
moves so much for his dad's work that it's easier to keep his head
down and not get attached to anyone. He'll be gone in a few months
anyway. But when they end up in Los Angeles, Dad promises this will
be the last time they move. The Pacific Crest Apartments are home
now . . . which means it's time for Jake to finally make friends.
Jake isn't sure he should count the two kids he meets at the
apartment's community center as friends, though. Tank Vuong is a
large and intimidating boy who hangs with a tough crowd, and Emily
Quesada is a fashionista who's quick with a sarcastic remark. But
when he discovers an old computer lab in a forgotten corner of the
community center, with a strange Minecraft server containing
cryptic riddles, he realizes he's going to need help cracking the
code-because at the end of the summer, the community center will be
demolished, and all hope of solving the mystery will go with it.
Following the hints left by an enigmatic figure known as The
Wizard, the trio journeys into the dangerous depths of the ocean,
where uncanny creatures lurk and untold treasure awaits. . . .
