|
IN THE YEAR 2044, reality is an ugly place. The only time teenage Wade Watts |
|
really feels alive is when he's jacked into the virtual utopia known as the |
|
OASIS. Wade's devoted his life to studying the puzzles hidden within this |
|
world's digital confines, puzzles that are based on their creator's obsession |
|
with the pop culture of decades past and that promise massive power and |
|
fortune to whoever can unlock them.</p> |

<p><strong>80s, Back to Back</strong></p> |
|
<p>First, small spoiler: imagine a world were Second Life won and reached its |
|
wildest dream. A world created by an 80s aficionado. Imagine there is a prize |
|
hidden somewhere. Imagine the locks are all based on 80s stuff. That's the |
|
book. </p> |
|
<p>Now, if you're a children of the 80s, this will be a great ride. You'll find a |
|
bunch of stuff you remember appearing everywhere. And you'll remember what it |
|
was and it will be fun. </p> |
|
<p>All this you can read in all other reviews. </p> |
|
<p>The story suddenly drops mid book before returning to the old 80s memorabilia |
|
trip. A couple of pages could remove one hundred and the book would be a lot |
|
more fun (and that's why I'm not giving it 5 starts). </p> |
|
<p>Some things will piss you off: the "evil" guys are one dimensional. The |
|
romance is dull. The hero never gets in a corner he doesn't find a way out. |
|
The fights are too colorful. It may not sound so, but it is annoying.... Till |
|
you realize 80s movies were just like that. </p> |
|
<p>It's really a fun book and I never knew I could read that fast. </p> |
