Description
In the year 2045, the world is an ugly place. With dwindling resources and widespread poverty, most people escape into the OASIS, a vast virtual universe where life, work, and play are possible. It's a digital realm of thousands of unique worlds, but it holds a secret.
Wade Watts, a teenage boy living on the outskirts of Oklahoma City, lives for his time in the OASIS. He dedicates himself to deciphering the puzzles left behind by the eccentric creator of this virtual utopia, puzzles based on decades of pop culture. The first to solve them will inherit a fortune and immense power. When Wade discovers the first tangible clue, he’s thrust into a dangerous hunt, facing players who will stop at nothing to claim the prize. To survive, Wade must win, confronting the very real world he's always sought to escape.
