You ever do something dumb because curiosity told you to? Like, say, poke around a shiny new VR system during a solar eclipse? Yeah… that’s how Jack the Kid begins. One second, he’s in a school computer lab with smudged monitors and fluorescent lights. The next? He’s inside Minecraft. Not a player. Not a mob. Just… a kid made of flesh and blood in a world built of blocks. I still get goosebumps thinking about writing that first moment when he realizes he can’t log out.
And then there’s the Divining Pool—mysterious, humming, cryptic as a fortune cookie written directly by the readers. The way it whispers, the way it knows things—that’s when you realize this isn’t just another Minecraft diary. This is a LitRPG with rules that don’t quite fit. Steve and Alex are used to crafting, fighting, and surviving. Jack? He’s trying to understand how to breathe in a world that doesn’t have oxygen code.
What I love about this first book is the weirdness. It’s equal parts wonder and danger. Every block feels alien when you don’t have an inventory to fall back on. Every mob is terrifying when your HP bar is just… you. But there’s also awe—the way Alex and Steve study him like he’s a living glitch, the way Jack looks at their pixelated faces and realizes they’re real. It’s that perfect collision between player and program, where story and simulation start to blur.
So if you’ve ever dreamed of literally falling into your favorite game, Diary of Jack the Kid – A Minecraft LitRPG, Season 1 Episode 1 (Book 1) is your portal. Step into Vortexia, meet the Weird Walker, and find out what happens when reality forgets where it ends. Oh—and it’s Free on KU! 🧱💀🎮

The Weird Walker Arrives
Jack Walker is a kid in the real world, and he’s obsessed with gaming. When he finds that his school’s computer lab has just installed a brand new Virtual Reality System, he can’t resist sneaking a peek at it while all of the other kids are outside watching a rare solar eclipse. But when Jack finds himself suddenly transported INTO his familiar Minecraft world–real life body and all–the boy finds that he’s gotten into a VR gaming experience that is a little TOO real!
Minecraftians Steve and Alex live a pretty peaceful life in their mountain home that Alex built around a mysterious anomaly she called ‘the Divining Pool‘. One day while repairing some creeper damage to their animal pens from the night before, Alex is perplexed when the sky suddenly darkens and a shadow passes over the sun. The Divining Pool offers cryptic words about the arrival of the Weird Walker, and when she and Steve go looking for their missing sheep, they find a strange creature like nothing they’ve ever seen in their blocky world before…
