Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
An unexpected quest. Two worlds at stake. Are you ready?
Days after winning OASIS Founder James Halliday's contest, Wade Watts makes a discovery that changes everything.
Hidden within Halliday's vaults, waiting for his heir to find, lies a technological advancement that will once again change the world and make the OASIS a thousand times more wondrous - and addictive - than even Wade dreamed possible.
With it comes a new riddle and a new quest - a last Easter egg from Halliday, hinting at a mysterious prize.
And an unexpected, impossibly powerful and dangerous new rival awaits, one who'll kill millions to get what he wants.
Wade's life and the future of the OASIS are again at stake, but this time the fate of humanity also hangs in the balance.
Lovingly nostalgic and wildly original as only Ernest Cline could conceive it, Ready Player Two takes us on another imaginative, fun, action-packed adventure through his beloved virtual universe and jolts us thrillingly into the future once again.

if you liked the first book you'll like this too
Wil Wheaton is a delightful narrator, and this was a fun story that feels like a good sequel to the first book. If you loved the first one, you'll like this too.

Rinse repeat but without the charm
An endless string of Magical McGuffins that lacks the charm and creativity of its predecessor. Artemis is replaced by another Hermione, a female character who does most of the work but garners little credit and no status or recognition.

The sequel no one asked for
After really enjoying Ready Player One, this sequel was disappointing.
Every time the author approached a good story line they instead doubled back and gave a lacklustre story without any real character development and lots of unnecessary pop culture filler references and explanation of those references.
The narration for the most part was good and really the only high point of this book.

A meh sequel to one of my favourite books
Ending is a bit anticlimactic, but it's an alright read. Will Wheaton did great though.

Good follow up
This was a great sequel to the first. Anyone who is disappointed about SJW stuff in this has got no idea what the future will be like. The book is literally about empathy, grow up. This is not quite the same underdog tale as the first book, but still a huge adventure in pop culture.

Bland narration
I usually love Wil Wheaton’s narration, he was great with Ready Player One and The Martian. But here I found he was just a bit lacklustre, without enough inflection, and without the emotion and personality needed for a first person narrator. He was probably doing the best with what he had to work with. The book was not Cline’s best. He went way to hard on the minutia of white nerd pop culture references, which slowed the story progression and weakened the flow.
