Zack is your average seventeen year old with the usual high school issues of nerdy friends, vying for the attention of pretty girls and jerky bullies until the day he saw the flying saucer from a video game outside the classroom window. This leads to an instant "Beam me up, Scottie" moment and he later finds himself on the dark side of the moon with people who shouldn't exist playing video games to save the universe. I don't want to spoil the imaginative plot but Ernest Cline presents an interesting conspiracy theory - what if all the video games and all the sci-fi movies were used to train us for war against a very real alien threat? The story takes place over just a few days and moves at lightspeed which is a good thing because once you start you won't be putting the book down. Gamers and sci-fi fans rejoice because the author has just bumped you to the head of the class. Is it real and are you ready?
