The bad side effect is you have to carefully detach yourself, and you can only wear it for 12 hours before your body starts shutting down due to over stimulation and your body now doesn’t move, not like before where you were you wore a VR head set and had an omni-directional tread meal. The product is a new rig that straps in over your head head and connects to your brain stem, in the game it lets you now feel, taste, and smell everything in the game blurring reality. 9 days after taking over he has to make a decision about a product the creator Halliday was unsure of at his death and was going to let his new heir decide. They have the ultimate decision on not just Oasis but on the products associated with it.

The Plot: Wade Watts and the members of High Five have taken over Oasis, a virtual world that lets you experience video games, music, books, and movies as a avatar, as members of the board of GSS. This book does have a slow beginning that is 50 page of exposition that could have been shorter and more filtered out. The end the climax was exciting, the eighties references are on point. I enjoyed Ready Player One more but this sequel has it’s charm and had some really cool highlights. John Hughes land was my absolute favorite, the whole book could have happened there and I would have been fine. The worlds explored are John Hughes, Prince, PBS, Florian (Princess Bride) and Middle Earth. The magic is still alive in the series, the world building is expanded. This book focuses more on overall pop culture during the 80’s while the first one was a little more about gaming, which is sure to turn some readers off. Ready Player Two is like the Matrix meets Tron: Legacy, it ups the action, and the quests (seven instead of three). Ready Player Two by Ernest Cline is the sequel to the geektastic Ready Player One.
