Píše se rok 2045 a svět, utápějící se v energetické a ekonomické krizi, je velmi chmurným místem k životu. Není divu, že většina lidí utíká před realitou do uměle vytvořeného vesmíru videoherního systému OASIS, kde mohou zapomenout na běžné starosti, vytvořit si novou identitu...

A lot more fun than I expected.

4 stelle

I wasn't too sure how this one was going to go because I normally REALLY don't care for pop culture references in books because it dates them like crazy. I'm not sure how well this will hold up in the future since a lot of these references are already lost to the past and that will get worse as time goes on.

But I found this to be a fun ride! I felt like it had a good blend of tension and adventure and emotional connections. It kept my attention through the whole story and didn't lose me along the way. I felt like the characters were written well and had their flaws and issues, but it didn't completely tank the story.

I already have a physical copy of the book and this is one that I'll be holding onto.

80s video game nostalgia

3 stelle

I read this when it was new, and thought it had some interesting ideas and was a fun trip down memory lane. But over time I kept seeing people point out problems, and I'd think back, and realize, yeah, there's not a whole lot of substance there, and it's got some serious issues.

Back then, the nostalgia and scavenger hunt were enough for me. Now, not so much.

A great book for videogame enthusaists and those who love 80's culture.

A great story regarding a late teen engaging in a video game quest with real-world impact. Set in a dystopian future, the tale gives you a blend of a virtual world learing to positive and meaningful real-life changes.

The story is told with enthusiasm and gives you a great insight into a late teen learning there is more to life than a virtual world. It also teaches you persistance, may lead to mindblowing results.

I enjoyed it.

To be honest it's been a while since I read the book so don't expect a full in depht review. Sorry.

I liked it, quite a lot indeed. I also enjoy playing video games and 90% of the action occours on a video game. I think that, as always, the book is quite superior compared to the movie.

In conclussion: I recomend it if you like cifi stuff.

Review of 'Ready Player One' on 'Goodreads'

5 stelle

A great nostalgic romp through the past, the present and, perhaps a not too distant future. It points out what's wrong with our global culture today in a way that brings back the hope we had growing up in the 70's and 80's. It reinvigorates a faith in the goodness of humanity in spite of our current mistakes and failings. And it points out the absolute value of charity towards one another. And it shows how we know all this; we learned it all growing up but forgot it being part of the rat race or being run over by it.

It's full of Easter eggs from pop culture and the best ones are those he brings up without pointing them out, leaving the reader to notice them.

For anyone who is nostalgic about the late 70's and 80's and the tabletop role-playing game that spawned many others and computer …
