The Minecraft combat handbook covers everything combat related. It offers a lot of statistics for armor, weapons, and enemies, as well as offering details on the games two of the games three bosses: the Wither and the Ender Dragon. The book was published before the Elder Guardian was released. It also covers PVP situations, and how to effectively fight against other human characters in multiplayer, and it also gives a couple step-by-step guides for building traps for you base, including an show more exploding tree trap that I wasn't actually familiar with.

As I've said about these books in the past, because they are books, they become outdated fast, especially since the game is constantly updating. Not only that, but I noticed it lacked some important details. For example, when describing how to build an enchantment table to enchant equipment, it failed to mention how to surround it with bookshelves to allow for more powerful enchantments. It also didn't mention how to add redstone and glowstone dust to potions to increase their potency. It also offers do's and don'ts for each mob, but the most major don't ever for a skeleton is to not fight it in water, which is not what the book says for the "don't" on that page.

It's still nice to have a compendium of all the enemies in the game, and for that reason this one is probably the most fun to just flip through on a whim. As for the information, I'd recommend finding a wiki page for something more up-to-date.

The Essential Minecraft Handbook covers all the basics for the first-time Minecraft player. It teaches yo the first things you need to do when starting a Survival world, and gives some simple tips and tricks for surviving long-term. Things like how to create tools, how to keep monsters out of your house, what resources to look for, and how to build a farm to sustain yourself long-term.

It's not terribly useful for the seasoned Minecraft player, and to be honest, it's probably not the best show more source of information for new players either. The book is a couple years old, and because it is an ever-changing game, some of the information is already dated and inaccurate.

Intriguingly, a couple popular Youtubers who play Minecraft have contributions in the book, and one (CaptainSparklez) is one my Sister and I watch regularly, so that was interesting to see.

Fortunately, this is only 1 book of 4 in the series, and I bought the box set. The others look much more useful for veteran players, so I'm still looking forward to the remaining books.
