One of my favorite audiobooks; Will Wheaton reads it! Also, this is probably the nerdiest book ever. I'd recommend for folks who grew up in the 80s. I had one major problem with it until about chapter 30. I won't spoil it, but just say that I was satisfied by the end. ...more

It's the middle of the 21st century, and a worldwide economic collapse has turned the United States into a decaying mess, where people spend most of their time in an elaborate online multiplayer virtual reality game. Ernest Cline's novel tells the story of a massive hunt the game's creator posthumously unveiled to find the heir to his fortune -- as well as the control of the game itself.

Science fiction isn't my genre. But eighties pop culture? Computer games? Those are a little more up my alley. ...more

EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS. Seriously. This book was SO damn good. The only reason it took me so long to read is because I'm swamped at work. But honestly, I'm going to re-read this someday, because I'm going to buy it, because I liked it that much.

Excellent.

Edited to add: I just read this book twice in how many months? Three? It was seriously good the second-time around. I'm pretty sure this is my #1 book this year. ...more
