If Willy Wonka and World of War Craft had a baby during the 80's, it would be this book. Really fun and interesting, especially if you grew up in the 80's during the rise of video games or if you love MMORPG's. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I would have enjoyed it more if I understood the more of the 80's gaming references.

Insanely good book! It was impossible to put down. It was fun for nostalgia sake but also just a good gripping story that had me hooked until the end.

I loved the world this book created. I often found myself deeply immersed. The 80’s references get a little old, but it’s otherwise a great read.

I enjoyed this book but it took me awhile to finish. it's very long and I picked it up and put it down a few times. I enjoyed all the 80s pop culture references and the plot of the story. I can see why it's being made into a movie.
