This is for an older age range than my normal Minecraft fare. I'd describe it as basically a fantasy novel for ages 8-12. I'm very proud of the work I did on this one!<br>https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/776475/minecraft-dungeons-ii-the-rift-by-caleb-zane-huett-and-mojang-ab/|August 28, 2026}}</ref>

== Trivia ==
* In official online author-blurbs for ''The Rift'', it says that "His favorite things in Minecraft are the [[Minecraft:axolotls]]."<ref>{{Citation|url=https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/authors/2296808/caleb-zane-huett/|title=Caleb Zane Huett|website=Penguin Random House}}</ref><ref>{{Citation|url=https://www.bookelicious.com/author/4804/|title=Caleb Zane Huett|website=Bookelicious}}</ref> But in the physical first edition print copies of the book, the line was changed to "His favorite thing in Minecraft is the [[Minecraft:zombie nautilus]]."<ref>[[Minecraft::File:MCD2 Caleb Zane Huett The Rift Inside Cover.png]]</ref> The rest of the author blurb was untouched, save for the addition of ''[[Minecraft: Ironsword Academy]]'' to his list of other works, and formatting.
* While working on Minecraft projects, he doesn't receive early access to upcoming media.<ref>{{Bluesky|calebzane.bsky.social|3m7ldztqfw22c|(I don't get early access to Minecraft info so I am often changing things mid-update to keep 'em current. Since it takes around a year for my books to drop after I finish them they rarely FEEL current, but I try to make em as good as they can be!!)|December 9, 2025}}</ref>
