All of the 80's references are completely lost on me, but the quest flow sprinkled with action makes for a compelling book. I wish the main character Wade/Parzival had slightly more setbacks throughout (except for 1 life changing event, it seems everything just goes his way) especially given that the non-metaverse outside world is completely in shambles.
Would you like to place a wake-up call to a fellow adult of their boastful behavior? Recommend them this book! Yertle the Turtle and its other stories ridicule megalomania, avarice, and bragging. A friendly reminder to not be evil.
Once I found out there was another biography of Steve Jobs (yet “unauthorized”), I quickly got my hands on an audio copy. “Becoming” is more nuanced in describing Jobs' temper and irate behavior (and its softening over time) than Walter Isaacson's book. A well told story, especially since Jobs' genius and impact on Apple never bores.
Poignant memoir on the exploration of racial divide. Pleasantly amusing to listen to Obama impersonating his Kenyan relatives. Reads like a fiction.
