Ernest Cline’s Novel READY PLAYER TWO Is Set to Be Released in November!
The long-awaited sequel to Ernest Cline’s nostalgic pop culture-fueled novel Ready Player One has been given an official release date! Penguin Random House imprint Ballantine Book has announced that Ready Player Two will be released on November 24th in North America!
The first book was so much damn fun to read! I love that story! It was easily one of the most fun reading experiences that I’ve had. I also loved Steven Spielberg’s film adaptation of it. The story was set in a near-future dystopia where people escape the real world to instead live their lives in an expansive virtual universe called the OASIS where they can create their own reality.
The OASIS was created by James Halliday, and when dies, he promises his immense fortune to the first person to discover a digital Easter egg that's hidden somewhere in the OASIS. The story follows young Wade Watts, who joins the contest and finds himself becoming an unlikely hero in a reality-bending treasure hunt through a fantastical world of mystery, discovery, and danger.
The announcement for the release date of Ready Player Two did not come with any plot details, but I can’t wait to read this book and see what adventure the story takes these awesome characters on next!
