Ready Player One: The global bestseller and now a major Steven Spielberg movie

Reviews

Clarke, Zelazny and several other authors who've been mentioned in this book. The book had me hooked. I’m not a child of the 80’s, but I do love games and films and this book was filled with so many references to childhood favourites, as well as current ones.

I highly recommend these books and this is coming from someone who doesn't really enjoy the 80's (I'm a 90's kid, born very late 80's and as you will have picked up from the other reviews, 80's film/game/music culture is heavily referenced in these books). I loved every moment of it, both inside the OASIS and outside in the real world. So that while the youngsters learn the way of the Geeks, the elders work on avoiding a Zombie apocalypse.

And that's what every book is, a journey. And given the contents of the book, I would doing the film a great disservice had I not done my research like a true 'Gunter'. Thankfully, there isn't much of it and after the first 80 pages or so (barring a few dragging moments), the story races to the end like the DeLorean on steroids.

Though, that is not in any way the fault of the author, it's a testament to his writing prowess and his understanding of teenagers that made the awkward, adolescent romance moments get well and truly under my skin. I've come to conclude that should the dystopian world as imagined in this book come to pass, then Ready Player One would be the book I shall keep in the 'Required Reading' section of my old, shabby, hidden library. But being in lockdown and very bored i thought, why not. I'm going to keep thinking about this one for long now, can't wait to read the second part!
