Resumen del Editor

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Now a major motion picture directed by Steven Spielberg.

“Enchanting . . . Willy Wonka meets The Matrix.”—USA Today • “As one adventure leads expertly to the next, time simply evaporates.”—Entertainment Weekly

A world at stake. A quest for the ultimate prize. Are you ready?

In the year 2045, reality is an ugly place. The only time Wade Watts really feels alive is when he’s jacked into the OASIS, a vast virtual world where most of humanity spends their days.

When the eccentric creator of the OASIS dies, he leaves behind a series of fiendish puzzles, based on his obsession with the pop culture of decades past. Whoever is first to solve them will inherit his vast fortune—and control of the OASIS itself.

Then Wade cracks the first clue. Suddenly he’s beset by rivals who’ll kill to take this prize. The race is on—and the only way to survive is to win.

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Entertainment Weekly • San Francisco Chronicle • Village Voice • Chicago Sun-Times • iO9 • The AV Club

“Delightful . . . the grown-up’s Harry Potter.”—HuffPost

“An addictive read . . . part intergalactic scavenger hunt, part romance, and all heart.”—CNN

“A most excellent ride . . . Cline stuffs his novel with a cornucopia of pop culture, as if to wink to the reader.”—Boston Globe

“Ridiculously fun and large-hearted . . . Cline is that rare writer who can translate his own dorky enthusiasms into prose that’s both hilarious and compassionate.”—NPR

“[A] fantastic page-turner . . . starts out like a simple bit of fun and winds up feeling like a rich and plausible picture of future friendships in a world not too distant from our own.”—iO9

Reseñas de la Crítica

2017, Laura Hillenbrand Outstanding Literary Award, Winner

“The science-fiction writer John Scalzi has aptly referred to Ready Player One as a ‘nerdgasm’ [and] there can be no better one-word description of this ardent fantasy artifact about fantasy culture. . . . But Mr. Cline is able to incorporate his favorite toys and games into a perfectly accessible narrative.” (Janet Maslin, The New York Times)

“This non-gamer loved every page of Ready Player One.” (Charlaine Harris, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse series)

A classic for kids of the 80s

This audiobook is on my list of books I re-listen to at least once a year. As someone who grew up in the 80s and 90s and experienced the early days of the internet it speaks to me. I understand why some younger people don’t get it (feedback from friends) but this book is definitive of my generation. AUDIBLE 20 REVIEW SWEEPSTAKES ENTRY

Connie

Excellent book, very entertaining. Once I started listening to it I didn't want to stop till it was over.

Great listen!

This was a really enjoyable listen. Would recommend it to anyone who remembers the 80's and even some who don't.

This is one of the greatest things I have read.

This book couldn't have come at a better time. I have so much going on right now with head and heart, because of one of my best friends being the girl I love, and this book connects so well with me, I have never felt this way before. This book touches on a level only one other book had, Harmonic Feedback by Tara Kelly, that it will forever be on my mind.

Awesome!<br />

Wow! This book is so much fun. I loved every minute of it. Highly recommended.

Outstanding

Great story. Perfect setting and plot. Wil does a fantastic job narrating. I will be listening to this one again and again.

One of the best books I have encountered

Ready Player One is everything you want a book to be and so much more. My sister in law recommended Ready Player One as a great book to listen to on vacation and she was right. Will Wheaton did a great job of bringing the characters to life.

Perfect Pairing

The story was engaging and nostalgic for those that remember the 80’s fondly.

And with the Narration by Mr. Wil Wheaton the story was brought to life and the characters felt like they were each unique individuals. Well done sir!
