Ready Player One

If you haven't read "Ready player one" by Ernest Cline yet, try it. You will love it if:

• You remember the 80s fondly.
• You liked video games.
• You watched 80s movies.
• You played text adventure games.
• You’re into SF and VR.

Premise: The 80s have been recreated in virtual reality, and now a treasure hunt is on: for a fortune in money, but also for the ownership of the virtual reality and for the chance to save it from a greedy corporation hell-bent on changing the setting forever. The plot is one gigantic video game / treasure hunt / puzzle.

 

Young Adult level, a bit too much swearing for young young-adults. A romance subplot. Because the plot is a virtual reality game, any deux ex machina devices should be forgiven. J
