At once wildly original and stuffed with irresistible nostalgia, READY PLAYER ONE is a spectacularly genre-busting, ambitious, and charming debut—part quest novel, part love story, and part virtual space opera set in a universe where spell-slinging mages battle giant Japanese robots, entire planets are inspired by Blade Runner , and flying DeLoreans achieve light speed.
At once wildly original and stuffed with irresistible nostalgia, READY PLAYER ONE is a spectacularly genre-busting, ambitious, and charming debut—part quest novel, part love story, and part virtual space opera set in a universe where spell-slinging mages battle giant Japanese robots, entire planets are inspired by Blade Runner , and flying DeLoreans achieve light speed.
It’s the year 2044, and the real world is an ugly place.
Like most of humanity, Wade Watts escapes his grim surroundings by spending his waking hours jacked into the OASIS, a sprawling virtual utopia that lets you be anything you want to be, a place where you can live and play and fall in love on any of ten thousand planets.
And like most of humanity, Wade dreams of being the one to discover the ultimate lottery ticket that lies concealed within this virtual world.For somewhere inside this giant networked playground, OASIS creator James Halliday has hidden a series of fiendish puzzles that will yield massive fortune—and remarkable power—to whoever can unlock them.
For years, millions have struggled fruitlessly to attain this prize, knowing only that Halliday’s riddles are based in the pop culture he loved—that of the late twentieth century.And for years, millions have found in this quest another means of escape, retreating into happy, obsessive study of Halliday’s icons. Like many of his contemporaries, Wade is as comfortable debating the finer points of John Hughes’s oeuvre, playing Pac-Man, or reciting Devo lyrics as he is scrounging power to run his OASIS rig.
And then Wade stumbles upon the first puzzle.
Suddenly the whole world is watching, and thousands of competitors join the hunt—among them certain powerful players who are willing to commit very real murder to beat Wade to this prize. Now the only way for Wade to survive and preserve everything he knows is to win . But to do so, he may have to leave behind his oh-so-perfect virtual existence and face up to life—and love—in the real world he’s always been so desperate to escape.

80年代各种宅点，游戏电影音乐动漫跑团等等。不过情节和人物有点单薄，而且对臭宅们吹捧地几近玛丽苏。。。

60到80年代的各种游戏、电影、音乐，各种怀旧。情节上开头非常吸引人，但是到了后面却进入套路，和开头没有太大的区别。只能说可以更好。三星，加一星给那个曾经最美好的年代。

抛开使这本书盛名的80s references，故事其实就是传统简单的弱气勇者斗恶龙的框架。连作者引用八十年代文化的手法都拙劣地像那种偷懒的杂志简单地罗列"top 10 people's favorite 80's stuff"一样。明明可以用得更好的梗就这样浪费了

我是谁？我为什么要看小学生写的书？IOI的人为啥一定要那么显眼？电影比书不知道高到哪里去了。

看完这本书更佩服斯皮尔伯格和电影的编剧了，小说写的真的是平平无奇。很多地方的逻辑都有明显漏洞，结局也给人一种不清不楚的感觉。

是对VR的科幻，但少了对AI的想象力
