This was more of a list of tips book than anything else. Some of the tips were good, but I think it assumed a more basic familiarity in order to take advantage of them.
This was a very fast 30 min read during lunch. It was my first LibraryThing review I'd done.
I am very new to Minecraft, having played it a couple of times on PC and once on the tablet. I thought this book would be a good introduction, and it was, but only in certain ways.
The book seems to assume you've played or read enough to know basic controls, and that's fine, but the tips it gives you past that, at least in house building, surviving at night and fighting common enemies, are not much more detailed than a very beginning guide. While the chapters had some interesting tidbits, the whole thing read like a webpage guide - not really much depth to anything at all.
As an "Ultimate" Players Guide, it really is Ultimate only for the first time player. You'll very quickly outgrow it.
