El esperado regreso del autor de Ready Player One, el best seller en que se basara la proxima pelicula de Spielberg Zack Lightman se ha pasado la vida sonando. Sonando con que el mundo real se pareciera un poco mas al sinfin de libros, peliculas y videojuegos de ciencia ficcion que lo han acompanado desde siempre. Sonando con el dia en que un acontecimiento increible y capaz de cambiar el mundo hiciera anicos la monotonia de su aburrida existencia y lo embarcara en una gran aventura en los confines del espacio. Y entonces Zack ve un platillo volante, una nave alienigena es igual a las del videojuego al que se pasa enganchado todas las noches, un juego multijugador de naves muy popular llamado Armada en el que los jugadores tienen que proteger la Tierra de unos invasores extraterrestres. No, Zack no se ha vuelto loco. Aunque parezca imposible, aquello es muy real. Y van a ser necesarias sus habilidades y las de millones de jugadores de todo el mundo para salvar la Tierra de lo que esta por venir. / Zack sees a flying object, an alien ship just like the one in the video game he plays every night: a very popular multiplayer game called Armed, in which players protect the Earth from extraterrestrial invaders. No, Zack has not gone mad. Believe it or not, its very real. The skills of those millions of players will be needed to save the Earth from what is to come.

What takes me so long to read this! That's limited to persons who watch Science fiction movies a lot. Not as much as the main character Zack but close. And game playing. The setup is good as it is about fantasy, not just in US but in Japan, when the world is in danger and only a teenager o...
Seriously, the concept of this book is amazing and I was really excited about it. It is full of references and I felt myself smiling so many times. There were also naturally some references I did not get, but that was not a problem for me. I am not a hardcore gamer, but I do love video games and pop...
I was seriously concerned that I would get more of the same in 'Armada' that I had 'Ready Player One'. I was sort've justified, but that doesn't mean that 'Armada' doesn't have a lot to offer.Zack Lightman is obsessed with video games, particularly Armada, a game where one pilots fighter ships in sp...
