Ready Player One by Ernest Cline
Man, that is a lot of 80s references.
I feel really… pandered to. Here is a book full of references to things you are nostalgiac about… movies, video games, etc.
It’s a fine dystopian future plot, where a young, overweight gamer can save the world (sort of) by remembering 80s trivia, and playing video games.
Really… just so… pandered to.
But that’s fine. It’s an enjoyable ride, as long as you can overlook the Mary Sue-ness.
