A Call to Arms

book cover of A Call to Arms

Reviewer: Alex

Book by Cube Kid

The book “A Call To Arms” is book 2 of the “Tales Of An 8-Bit Kitten” series and is about a kitten named Eeebs who went into the Nether and was magically transformed into a super powerful kitten. In book 2 he finds out that he can learn monster abilities by being affected by them. Eeebs has dark blue fur and he can stand up on 2 feet. Eeebs can also teach people monster abilities like the aspect of the spider that makes it so you can climb up walls like a spider. “ Tales An 8-Bit Kitten” is based in Minecraft. I like this book because it is about a kitten and I really like kittens and cats. I also like this book because Eeebs is not brave, disobedient, and does not understand a lot of stuff. People who like kittens, Minecraft, and monsters should read this book.
