The year is 2048, three years after the High Five took control over the OASIS and defeated Innovative Online Industries. Valerie Woods (Val for short) is your typical middle-class teenage girl, obsessed with the mid-2000's and sci-fi. She's kind of a nobody, really. But on the OASIS, she's a male rock star called Aelien. He's the lead vocalist and guitarist of a band of four called the Destiny Detonators, which is one of the most popular artists in the OASIS. Yeah, his band's famous. No biggie. But here's where stuff goes down: Aelien and the band are wandering in an empty bit of the OASIS, when they find something they never thought they'd see. A virus. With the IOI logo plastered all over it. Soon the four friends are swept up in a quest to rid the OASIS of IOI's tyranny, filled with action, violence, craziness, shenanigans, and maybe even a bit of romance. Enjoy your ESCAPE to the OASIS. ~ this book is an unofficial sequel to the book (not the movie, except for some vocabulary and appearances) Ready Player One, by Ernest Cline. All characters except for my own belong to the original author.
