Ready Player Two takes place a few years after Ready Player One. The protagonist is a multi-billionaire. His VR video game world Oasis is a dominate force in society. Now they have a new technology that taps directly into the brain for a full immersive experience. They end up with a big battle to find shards and finally have a singularity.
Like the first novel, this book drops endless 80s reference. Alas, the writing and story are even more tedious. A battle with different versions of Prince is way over the top. It feels as if he has just run out of ideas and just tries to throw out whatever he can and hope it sticks.
