#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.

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

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)

AMAZING!

wonderful story! great characters! fabulous setting! I wish I had not read it yet so could I could do it again and be thrilled all over again!

The best story ever

The best book I’ve ever listen to or read of all time I don’t think any other book could’ve topped what I just listen to.

Excelente!!!! Better than the Movie!

Amazing book! 100x better than the movie! Totally different! I grew up in the 70s and 80s so this book really hit home!!!!

i loved the movie, so i decided to read the book..

Wil Wheaton did an incredible job bringing this story to life!! i loved the nostalgic feel in every reference , and how well I could picture the twists and turns of the plotline.

I see now why so many die hard fans were so disappointed by the movie. Aside from the names of the characters, its basically a TOTALLY different story.

It started a little slow for me, and took about 30 minutes to really get into the story, but after that, i was hooked!!

i would love there to be a sequel!!

Like the movie

I really like the movie and how’s he is like “Koreans crapping in there corn flakes”😂😂😂. I highly love this audio book.

Fantastic!

Are you nostalgic for the 80's pop culture? Do you like well written distopias? Do you enjoy listening to Wil Wheaton's voice? This is the book for you.

This book will take you on an adventure from the first minute, introducing you to believable characters as they struggle with life as they know it. You'll watch them grow along with the multitude of 80's references placed along the way. It will all lead you do a finale that will leave you grinning!

Thank you Ernest for writing it! And thank you Wil for making the words come to life!

Fantastic, enjoyable, nostalgic

Loved it. Absolutely loved it. Well-narrated, well-written. Reminiscent in all the right ways. Anyone who knows about the 80's should give it a try!

Nostalgia and Being a nerd kid again while geeking

Having been born in 79 and then reliving my childhood over and over through the adances of VHS to DVD to BluRay thid movie gave me hope that these things will still be there when I'm old.

Great story, Terrible Narrator

Probably would have enjoyed it more if the narrator wasn’t so awful. I loved the premise but thought the dialogue is a bit immature. Overall a great adventure!

Incredible decadent delight

Narration carried the wonder and excitement I felt as childhood memories came flying back. It was vivid and satisfying right up to the end. Loved this audiobook.
