Press release from: Birch Tree Publishing

The popularity of Minecraft books continues to grow at Birch Tree Publishing, who publish the majority of Minecrafter novels for both children and adults. In addition to their original, unofficial Minecraft novels, Birch Tree has a series of epic battles and adventure novels for Minecrafters.
As President and Publisher of his company, Mr. Birch discussed the company's entry into the Minecraft market and its enduring appeal. "Since 2015, we have paid close attention to Minecraft. It seemed to be trending and ranking high on every list. We started watching YouTube videos of Vanilla Minecraft in order to find out why it was so popular. The number of people watching and following the game prompted us to investigate further."
As if by magic, the property took on a life of its own. Moreover, they are not just aimed at 7-8 year olds, but also at older audiences. Due to its educational value, parents, teachers, and bookstores are embracing the game and books today.
It was time for Birch Tree to find its next big hit following S.E. Wilson's sequels to The Wind in the Willows, Mr. Toad's Wonderful Gun, Ratty and Moley Run Through the Jungle, and To the Ends of the Earth and Beyond. The primary target was Minecraft, so we honed in on it. Additionally, we launched Zombie Kid and his Minecrafter series, along with the first book in The Giants of Stonehold by New York Times Bestselling Author Mark Cheverton. On November 1, 2024, Cheverton's Gameknight999 Roblox series will be launched.
Birch Tree's publisher said, "We have always held Cheverton's amazing stories in high regard. Thus, we capitalized on the Minecraft trend because we move a bit faster than larger houses." As well as Minecraft fame, Gameknight999 has made his way into Roblox. Which opens the doors to a new series ….. Gameknight999 and the Ether Wraiths, as well as Adopt Me Meets Jailbreak will be hitting the presses.
The Great War, by Zombie Kid, was Birch Tree's first illustrated Minecraft novel published in October 2023. "The early response has been very positive," Birch says. "We were able to see right away that we had hit the jackpot." When Birch recognized the potential of the kids' market and saw the growth of sales margins, he focused on it and released Zombie Invasion: A Minecrafters Gamer's Adventure (Nov. 2023), a sequel to the first novel in the Zombie Kid series, as well as the unofficial Eagle-Eye Minecrafter's Superhero series (March 2024), Eagle Eye vs Eagle Eye and Mindbender's Revenge.
Birch Tree published six more Zombie Kid novels: Astapailia Wars, The Final Battle (Jan. 2024), Chesty the Hero, (Feb. 2024), The Assanwotani Warriors (Feb. 2024), Battle of Calgarus (May. 2024), Rise of the Guardian Lord, The Beginning (June. 2024), swiftly followed by Book one of the exciting series Spiders Attack (Sep. 2024).
Three upcoming novels are scheduled for late 2024, beginning with Clan of the Reds (Nov 1st). As part of the quest for magic and epic battles, Minecrafters can look forward to three more volumes, Monsters of Overworld, scheduled to be released December 10 and January 15.
Birch acquired a trilogy of self-published works by Mark Cheverton, Susan Collins, Mark Slade, and S.E. Wilson. We've set the first novels in the Minecraft universe along with Cheverton's novels for young readers. Parents will be pleased because they're real, text-driven books, not just tutorials."
The major mass market accounts that support Birch Tree's Minecraft titles include Barns and Noble, Target, Walmart, and Toys 'R Us in the US, UK, and Sharjah. As Birch points out, the success of Minecraft depends heavily on the distributors and retailers.
Birch Tree is excited about Minecraft trends and staying on top of them. The reason we've built a solid reputation with our customers is that our books are action-packed, filled with adventure, magic, and bravery, as well as teaching kids tolerance, teamwork, and loyalty.
Birch said: "Despite robust sales, no publisher wants inventory they can't sell." New generations of children are introduced to the property every year because the licensor has done a great job managing it. "As far as Minecraft is concerned, I believe there is a lot of potential and we want to remain there for the long haul."

FROM MASTER TRADE TO FULL-SERVICE PUBLISHER
Started as a one-man operation in the late 90s, we have continually evolved to meet the needs of our authors. The core of our business has always been to master the publication and distribution process to major bookstores and specialty retailers. Over time, we recognized the need for top-quality editorial, design, and strategic marketing services, so we have a team of experts to help authors market their books. Birch Tree sales-focused approach attract first-time authors along with published authors who were seeking an alternative to restrictive traditional publishing packages. With this, we will take your idea and make them a reality. From the very beginning, we have worked with the 'hybrid' model of publishing contracts, which has become increasingly popular in recent years. This means that while we look at every new manuscript with a view to offering a traditional mainstream publishing deal, we also have the option of offering a partnership agreement as well, where the author may be asked to cover part of the cost of publishing the book.
