Cline's imaginative and rollicking coming-of-age geek saga has a smash-hit vibe."--Booklist, starred review. 520 $a It's the year 2044, and the real world is an ugly place. Like most of humanity, Wade Watts escapes his grim surroundings by spending his waking hours jacked into the OASIS, a sprawling virtual utopia that lets you be anything you want to be, a place where you can live and play and fall in love on any of ten thousand planets. And like most of humanity, Wade dreams of being the one to discover the ultimate lottery ticket that lies concealed within this virtual world. For somewhere inside this giant networked playground, OASIS creator James Halliday has hidden a series of fiendish puzzles that will yield massive fortune -- and remarkable power -- to whoever can unlock them. 520 8 $a For years, millions have struggled fruitlessly to attain this prize, knowing only that Halliday's riddles are based in the pop culture he loved -- that of the late twentieth century. And for years, millions have found in this quest another means of escape, retreating into happy, obsessive study of Halliday's icons. Like many of his contemporaries, Wade is as comfortable debating the finer points of John Hughes's oeuvre, playing Pac-Man, or reciting Devo lyrics as he is scrounging power to run his OASIS rig. And then Wade stumbles upon the first puzzle. Suddenly the whole world is watching, and thousands of competitors join the hunt -- among them certain powerful players who are willing to commit very real murder to beat Wade to this prize. Now the only way for Wade to survive and preserve everything he knows is to win. But to do so, he may have to leave behind his oh-so-perfect virtual existence and face up to life -- and love -- in the real world he's always been so desperate to escape. A world at stake. A quest for the ultimate prize. Are you ready? 586 8 $a ALA/YALSA Alex Award, 2012 526 0 $a Accelerated Reader/Renaissance Learning $b UG $c 6.7 $d 23.0 $z 149949. 505 0 $a 2044. Like most of humanity, Wade Watts escapes this depressing reality by spending his waking hours jacked into the OASIS, a sprawling virtual utopia where you can be anything you want to be, where you can live and play and fall in love on any of ten thousand planets. And like most of humanity, Wade is obsessed by the ultimate lottery ticket that lies concealed within this alternate reality: OASIS founder James Halliday, who dies with no heir, has promised that control of the OASIS -- and his massive fortune -- will go to the person who can solve the riddles he has left scattered throughout his creation. 650 0 $a Regression (Civilization) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Virtual reality $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Utopias $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Puzzles $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Virtual reality $v Fiction. 650 7 $a YOUNG ADULT FICTION / Computers & Digital Media. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a YOUNG ADULT FICTION / Dystopian. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a YOUNG ADULT FICTION / Media Tie-In. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a YOUNG ADULT FICTION / Mysteries & Detective Stories. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a YOUNG ADULT FICTION / Science Fiction / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Puzzles. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01084492 650 7 $a Regression (Civilization) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01093263 650 7 $a Utopias. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01163359 650 7 $a Virtual reality. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01167688 650 7 $a Virtual reality $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Utopias $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Puzzles $v Fiction. $2 sears 655 0 $a Young adult fiction. 655 4 $a Fantasy fiction $v Young adult. 655 7 $a Young adult works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726790 655 7 $a Utopian fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01922578 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726607 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726489 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Utopian fiction. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a 2018 Great American Read. 941 $a 2 $n 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20240124133703.0 $n 10 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210603142821.0 $n 10 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2FE24B8AAC3311EB98A411E3203FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
