Bookroo's summary

Farnum, a zookeeper seeking a unique attraction, stumbles upon a mysterious portal. Meanwhile, Kritten, a piglin advisor, needs new land for their clan. Together, they uncover ancient legends that could alter the Overworld's fate. Can this unlikely duo trust each other and succeed in their quest, or will their ambitions lead to chaos? Dive into a world where past myths threaten the present, and alliances are forged in the most unexpected ways.

From the publisher

The mythic past of Minecraft Legends returns to threaten the Overworld in this official novel! Farnum dreams of running a famous zoo. But though the mobs he keeps are adorable, none of them draws anything close to a crowd. Farnum needs something strange and new–but he’s the furthest thing from an adventurer. It takes a lot of convincing from his friends, but Farnum finally takes a chance and goes with them to explore a lush new biome . . . which is how he ends up falling down a waterfall and washing up in front of a mysterious purple portal. Kritten has advised many powerful piglins. Few have been as fearsome or demanding as the Great Bungus. If Kritten wants their head to stay on their shoulders, the pint-sized piglin advisor is going to need to find their clan more land. And fast. At their most desperate point, they discover a cavern filled with ancient piglin carvings, depicting a legend that may have all the answers they’re looking for. Once upon a time, three fabled piglin hordes left the Nether behind and made war on the Overworld. And Kritten thinks they might just have a way to do the same now. All they need is the help of someone in the Overworld foolish enough to trust them . . . someone like Farnum. Together, zookeeper and piglin are about to carve out a legend of their own. And the Overworld may never be the same!
