Wolf_ Posted May 8, 2016 Author Posted May 8, 2016 Synopsis: In a dystopian future with record high crime rates, nuclear war, population overcorwding, and apartment complexes made out of trailers stacked on top of each other only one thing makes life less crap. Virtual reality! People end up living the majority of their lives inside VR because it is safer, offers them more freedom, and for escapism. Then the person that invented the technology dies and as he has no heirs leaves his entire fortune (240 billion dollars) up for grabs to whoever can complete his easter egg hunt. The man was completely obsessed with retrogaming so the entire journey is one massive adventure into old school gaming and 80s-90s culture. If you like retrogaming this is a fantastic book to read. Just thought I would start a discussion thread about it in case anyone else here loves it as well. Please use spoiler tags. Quote
Drybonz Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 I don't read much science fiction any more, but my girlfriend just read this series and she really liked it. Quote
