LAS VEGAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–blackshore,
a leading multi-channel business partner and management firm for digital
content developers, today announced the launch of Reality Respawns:
Worlds Collide, the first book in an unendorsed series of Minecraft
adventures. To celebrate the book launch, YouTube sensation Mitchell
Hughes aka BajanCanadian,
co-author of the first book in the series, will host a book signing fan
event at YouTube Space NY. The invitation-only affair will take place
Saturday, Dec. 5, at YouTube’s video production facilities in Chelsea
Market, Manhattan.

“blackshore is pleased to launch this new Minecraft book series,” states
Darrel Anderson, a blackshore founder. “We are thrilled to feature
Mitchell Hughes and Ken Taverner as co-authors of this first book,” adds
Anderson.

Mitchell Hughes, known to millions of fans around the world as the
BajanCanadian, is one of YouTube’s most watched personalities, with more
than 1.4 billion views and 5.2 million subscribers. He is a rising star
on other social channels and media formats as well. Not content to be
just another YouTube gamer, Hughes produces, performs in, and creates
content and music that he shares with his fans. Hughes owns several
successful online businesses, plus now adds book writing to his
repertoire.

“The book series will offer superb entertainment for Minecraft fans. Our
goal is to provide interesting reads for unplugged Minecraft fans,” says
co-author Mitchell Hughes. “Partnering with Ken Taverner for the first
book was awesome! And I am super exited to be at YouTube Space NY for
the upcoming signing event,” adds Hughes.

“Mitchell is great to work with,” says co-author Ken Taverner. “Despite
his hectic schedule, he manages to get it all done. It never ceases to
amaze me how he keeps producing videos, engaging fans and starting new
ventures all at the same time,” adds Taverner. “I hope Minecraft fans
like this book and look forward to the next one in the series.”

The Reality Respawns: Worlds Collide adventure begins when
the world of online gaming begins to merge with reality. Four good
friends, Katie, Mike, Jenn and Myles, are determined to seek help from
Benja, an expert in the online world, to restore their gaming worlds to
normalcy. In their quest to find Benja, the group encounters the Adjunct
Professor who promises to help without disclosing his ulterior motive —
using their skills to power his strange machine invention. The foursome
slays monsters and overcome numerous harrowing perils before completing
their mission. Only Benja can help when the tasks get too hard, but will
his help require the ultimate sacrifice…?
