Ik moest dit toffe stripalbum wel meenemen! Ik vond de originele novel serie erg leuk om te lezen en ik was meer dan benieuwd of dit ook zou werken in stripvorm. En ja, dat werkte heel goed. Het was erggg leuk om te lezen en heeft heel leuke art die perfect bij het verhaal/het gevoel van het verhaal passen. Minus en Blurp waren beide erg leuke karakters al vond ik het jammer dat Minus zo reageerde toen hij uitvond wie Blurp was. Hallo? Je hebt een hele reis met hem gemaakt, dit is niet een goede reactie. Ik vond het wel hilarisch hoe Blurp zijn best probeerde te doen niet per ongeluk Minus op te eten (tja, eens een zombie altijd een zombie).
Ik kan ook zeker niet wachten op de volgende delen en op het volgende avontuur. Want Minus en Blurp hebben nog veel te ontdekken.
Oh, en een dingetje dat ik had in de novels maar hier veel minder. Daar vond ik Minus af en toe best irritant omdat hij voor alles bang is, maar hier is hij dat iets minder. Hij lijkt veel dapperder en dat vond ik tof.

'Diary of an 8-Bit Warrior Graphic Novel' by Pirate Sourcil with art by Odone and Jez is a graphic novel based on the hit series for younger readers.
Runt lives in a Minecraft village, but he aspires to be a warrior, like Steve, the mythical Minecraft warrior. One day, he decides to leave the walls of his village with his wooden sword and chase his dream. Along the way, he makes some odd allies and ends up chasing after the ultimate game prize.
I had a great time reading this graphic novel. I've read a couple of the books and the same humor is evident here. I loved Runt and his zombie bff trying to live large and not kill each other. The art is bright and colorful and young readers should get a big kick out of this.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Andrews McMeel Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.

This is a pretty cute graphic novel, especially if you have younger kids obsessed with Minecraft. It also has a nice lesson buried in it about judging people by who they are, and not how they look. It clocks in a under 100 pages, so perfect for the younger set. I really liked it, and I don't even Minecraft! The artwork is very well done, as well.
The only problem I had with this book was it abruptly ends in the middle of a storyline. I get that this is part of a series, but even taking that into account...it was a bit jarring.

Thanks Netgalley for the chance to review! Diary of an 8-bit warrior is a graphic novel based around minecraft. This follows a regular block person and a zombie who think a little differently than their kind. I would recommend this to fans of minecraft.

Runt is a Minecraft villager who would rather be a warrior than farm carrots. Blunt is a Zombie who would rather be a human. Together, they set off to reach the final level and prove that their fate does not depend on their programming.
Although I have seen this series on the library shelf, I have never read the books. When I found this graphic novel, I thought for sure my children, who are big graphic novel fans, would enjoy it.
Not being a fan of Minecraft or the original book series (or a member of the target audience), I was a little confused by some of the elements in the world. However, by the end of the first few pages, I was definitely invested in these characters and wanted to know more about them. I found the story engaging and liked watching Runt and Blunt grow.
I look forward to reading more of these graphic novels.
