ERNEST CLINE has worked as a short-order cook, fish gutter, plasma donor, elitist video store clerk, and tech support drone. His primary occupation, however, has always been geeking out, and he eventually threw aside those other promising career paths to express his love of pop culture fulltime as a spoken word artist and screenwriter. His 2009 film Fanboys, much to his surprise, became a cult phenomenon. These days Ernie lives in Austin, Texas with his wife, their daughter, and a large collection of classic video games. READY PLAYER ONE is his first novel.
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.
A world at stake.
A quest for the ultimate prize.
Are you ready?
What a sad way to end the year and decade. This book is precisely why I should avoid overly hyped up YA novels. Now, before I go on and rant for a bit, please, please be aware that everything is my own opinion. As people say, art is subjective and everyo...

评分把近三十年來作家心儀的電玩電影電視小說動漫灌注在Dystopia的電子世界爭奪戰,有趣!!
评分这本90%的内容都在安利。安利狂魔教你成功捷径就是抱巨巨大腿。还塑造了一个只要追随巨巨的脚步好好玩游戏看电影追欧巴就可以成为人生赢家的神奇世界。我憋不住了我要长评剧透吐槽。华纳真是脑子糊了才想让诺兰拍这个。
评分看到的为数不多的科幻小说,一个能源衰竭、所有生活都可以在网络上完成,虚拟世界大于现实世界,现在来看有一点老套,还是能给一些启发
评分从80s nostalgia 的角度是很牛逼的。但是想象一个天才geek把时间都花在流行文化研究上,未免有点小看geek小看人类了。
