This numbered limited first edition set of Ready Player One and Ready Player Two by Ernest Cline brings together the two bestselling dystopian adventures set within the immersive virtual world of the OASIS. Blending high stakes action with gaming culture and 1980s pop nostalgia, the series achieved global recognition and was adapted for the screen as Ready Player One directed by Steven Spielberg. Presented here in as new condition, these numbered limited editions offer an attractive collectors issue of Cline's popular science fiction saga. Ready Player One & Ready Player Two, by Ernest Cline. Published by Century, London, 2020.
