So, yeah, I don’t play Minecraft, but I can still root for Runt. We all have goals that we are working toward and doing what we can to make sure that we have a better chance of achieving those goals. We deal with weird bullies, impossible teachers, awkward neighbors, and strange comings and goings. Runt’s diary is full of stories about the sort of challenges we face every day – in the Minecraft world and in the real world. He wants it so bad both he and the reader can taste it. He realizes that although he is expected to be a miner or a blacksmith or a baker or any of the other non-descript professions held by villagers, he is destined to be more like his hero Steve the Warrior. Runt may be worthy of his name in terms of his appearance, but he has a passion for going beyond and thinking outside the box. Not like, they are physically little or that they are young or whatever David and Goliath sort of stories where the hero is taking on an insurmountable challenge to be able to prove to himself and his peers that he is worthy of remembrance. So what is someone like me doing reading a book like this? How could I possibly enjoy a book about one of the most popular – and arguably the most awesome – games ever when I don’t even play the game? Well, I’ll tell you. What I know about the game could fit on one of those 3×3 sticky notes. I think I’m probably one of a handful of people that is a total noob when it comes to Minecraft. Why I finished it: Okay, I have a confession to make: I have never played Minecraft. Why I picked it up: These Unofficial Minecraft books have been popping up everywhere, so I decided to see what the buzz was about. But villagers aren’t supposed to learn how to be warriors…until now. What Runt REALLY wants is to be a Warrior. That’s because his choice of professions is limited to skill sets of farming crafting, or building. Synopsis: As a twelve-year-old Minecraft villager, Runt’s prospects for the future don’t look too promising. Boromir is ultimately corrupted by the Ring and tries to take it from Frodo, which results in the breaking of the Fellowship.Diary of an 8-Bit Warrior: An Unofficial Minecraft Adventure by Cube Kid, illustrated by SabotenĪndrews McMeel Publishing, 2016. His extreme sense of duty to Gondor causes him to make rash decisions and to ignore other matters unrelated to his home. The key difference between the two warriors is Boromir’s desire for power and prestige. Boromir experiences a challenging relationship with Aragorn after he learns of the Ranger’s lineage, as he respects Aragorn yet doubts his ability to lead the realm of Gondor. Indeed, he is unusually quiet after he meets her, perhaps shaken by the knowledge she has learned about his desires and ambitions. Boromir appears unwilling to enter the elf-forest of Lothlórien, for he has heard disturbing rumors about the psychic powers of the Lady Galadriel who dwells there. Elrond names him a member of the Company of the Ring, and he becomes increasingly obsessed by thoughts of the Ring as the Company progresses toward Mordor. He is reluctant to believe Elrond and Gandalf’s advice that the Ring cannot be controlled by any but Sauron. Present at the Council of Elrond, Boromir argues for the men of Gondor to take the Ring and wield its power against Sauron. The son of Denethor and brother of Faramir, Boromir is a proud man and mighty warrior who is set to inherit his father’s role as Steward of Gondor.
