vane3686134dI also liked this one, my proposal for you is read Armada from the same author when you finish 🙂
If you like sci-fi stories with teenage heroes I also liked Scythe by Neal Shusterman -
vane3686134d@delc82 no problem I started listen to audiobooks instead of music or watching movies recently during my programming sessions and since sci-fi cinema nowadays is dominated with some marvel/dc universe productions and there is not much to watch I got myself into audiobooks and fell in love with them.

AleCx0415700134d@cursee i also like the book better because of the content. But i like the movie a lot, it was written between the author(Ernest Cline) and Zak Penn, so it was still an original work though and I really enjoyed how they adapted. My only gripe was them not showing how or who found the first test.

lxmcf18588134dOK ill be the one that asks, the original ready player one or movie adaptation book?
If it's the original what's it like, looking at getting it :-3 -
cursee18725134dThe movie has to cut off and shorten this and that from original book.
That's why I prefer the book over movie.
The movie's animation and scenes are cool of course.
Plot-wise, book is better and details. -
Santaclauze3880134dThe book is awesome. Couldn't let it go. Took me about 5 days.
Its a bit corny sometimes but its still a great read.
If you like sci fi go check out peter f hamilton. -
irene19032134d@billgates movie has many things altered. It's basically two different stories with one skeleton.
-
irene19032134d@billgates book has different and more rich story which can't fit in a 2 hour movie.
-
gthathol139134dIf you like ready player one definitely give "Snowcrash"by Neal Stephenson a go as well. And "Daemon" by Daniel Suarez.
Snowcrash is another "this is what VR could be like" story (though more cyberpunk) and "Daemon" does the same for AR. Three of my favorite books of all time. -
TheAnimatrix1510133d@irene well its better than the movie and has a similar storyline doesn't it ?
-
irene19032133d@TheAnimatrix it's not better than the Player One movie, though the movie is not better than the book.
I'd recommend only the last one: SAO alternative Gun Gale online.
PS: hoping Alisization won't be as trashy as first series were.
Started reading the book "Ready Player One". Loving it so far.
