Latley I have been reading a really good book,it has alot of pop culture 80's refrences so I thought I would recomend it here for my bros and sisters at the wiki!

The book is called "Ready Player One" by Ernest Cline,in short without many spoilers the book takes place around 2040,Where a virtual world called OASIS exists,Think oculous rift+hang motions+MMO like UI and add real life to it and bam! OASIS.

Anyway now to the meat of the story,so the original creater of OASIS has died and in his will he states that he left hidden keys somewhere that will lead to a very very big sum of money!(think the Swordquest easter egg hunt,Which is also refrenced in the book).

Now your wondering wheres the 80's in this?,well the creater of OASIS has a virtutal journal full of everything he loved,(most of which being in the 80's) so 80's popclulture is very big in 2040.so if your looking for a bunch of 80's refrences and homages whiel still manintaining a serious storyline i would recomend this book for you!

so put on your leather jacket,mullet,and rock music and prepare to revist the 80's..in the future lol and yes it covers video games,movies,tv shows and music of the 80's!
