Ready Player Two: 6.5/10
Overall was a good read and certainly a satisfactory follow up to Ready Player One.
No spoilers, but the plot and conflict makes sense given the first book and did feel like a natural progression. There is a new 'collect the pieces' quest but its a very nice twist on it that makes not feel like a rehash. Some awesome new planets are explored, which if it gets made into a movie too will work well on the screen.
The new characters work well, even if they aren't in main roles.
My one big issue with the book was pacing. Cline spent too much time, IMO, playing the "where are they now" game and telling the story of what happened between books. This leads to some of the quests feeling very rushed and a couple even being glossed over to the point of "we got this piece, moving on..."
If you liked the 1st book, you'll like this. It didn't leave me feeling disappointed or let down and as far as sequels go it does what you'd want one to do.
