Nach dem grandiosen ersten Teil (und der unterirdischen Verfilmung) sowie dem enttäuschenden Abklatsch Armada ist der zweite Teil von Ready Player One genau dazwischen. Der Anfang macht viel Spaß, dank nerdiger Insider und den altbekannten Protagonisten. Leider hält die Spannung nicht über die komplette Geschichte und so bin ich doch am Ende froh als das Buch durch ist. Schade, aber letztlich war das Finale arg vorhersehbar.
