  • A Great Sequel!

    Holly P. - 5 years 6 months ago

    Honestly, I didn’t even look at the description and just added it to my TBR list because I liked the first one so much. Here’s the scoop: “Ready Player Two” picks up right where book one left us. Parzival is the CEO of Halliday’s company, along with his “crew” from book one. There’s a bit of personal beef between him and Samantha, but I’ll leave it at that. Right in chapter one, he discovers a headset hidden in the office. It hooks up to a player’s brain (!) so they have use of their full senses within the OASIS. There are also some controversial parts to it, but I’m not going to spoil any of it. The question is, should they patent this technology and release it to the masses? Regardless, there’s more to the plot when an evildoer enters the picture and presents a seriously dangerous ultimatum, putting Parzival and the gang BACK on the hunt for another one of Halliday’s treasures. The prize this time is much less about money and most certainly about life. This book was a bit darker than book one, but I thought it provided a more holistic view of James Halliday and it offers a bit of commentary on the downside of technology and how it affects society. I definitely would recommend this book if you’ve read the first one. #SpringPicks
