Tom is timid, bullied and the smallest boy at school. But when his beloved little sister Alice vanishes into his favourite video game, he must overcome his fears and find the courage he never knew he had, on a daring quest to rescue her from inside the magical world of Minecraft itself. With high-stakes, non-stop action and awesome potion-making, Rescue Quest is perfect for readers aged 8-12 who love playing Minecraft and getting lost in thrilling fantasy worlds.

  • "What a perfect gaming book. .. I love that this is book one in the series because it will be perfect for kids who love gaming. I loved that Tom felt relatable and that he grew as a character and found himself and continues to find himself. I can't wait for more adventures."

  • "I want to start by saying this book is indeed perfect for it’s target audience of 8 years plus but it is also perfect for nerdy 30 somethings with no children who enjoy gaming, particularly Minecraft... and enjoy reading. I have no shame in admitting the 30 something I just described is me and I have not had as much fun reading a middle grade in a while. "
