Ready, Player One by Ernest Cline

I cannot do this book justice. It is by far my favorite book ever. It has action, adventure, video games, coding, a challenge, and 80's trivia. What more is there to love?  Set in 2044 the world is in a state of disaster.   The protagonist, Wade Watts, along with the rest of the world can only escape by entering the virtual reality world of OASIS.  When the creator of the OASIS dies, he leaves behind an "Easter Egg"  and a trail of challenging clues for the users of the program to follow.  The winner will become the new head of the OASIS.  Will the "gunters" who are true to the spirit of the competition win or will the OASIS fall in to the hands of the corporate "Sixers."  This is a tale for every one to love!
