RESEÑA EDITORIAL SOBRE
Armada
From the author of Ready Player One, a rollicking alien invasion thriller that embraces and subverts science-fiction conventions as only Ernest Cline can. Zack Lightman has never much cared for reality. He vastly prefers the countless science-fiction movies, books, and videogames he\047s spent his life consuming. And too often, he catches himself wishing that some fantastic, impossible, world-altering event could arrive to whisk him off on a grand spacefaring adventure. So when he sees the flying saucer, he\047s sure his years of escapism have finally tipped over into madness. Especially because the alien ship he\047s staring at is straight out of his favorite videogame, a flight simulator callled Armada--in which gamers just happen to be protecting Earth from alien invaders. As impossible as it seems, what Zack\047s seeing is all too real. And it\047s just the first in a blur of revlations that will force him to question everything he thought he knew about Earth\047s history, its future, even his own life--and to play the hero for real, with humanity\047s life in the balance. But even through the terror and exhilaration, he can\047t help thinking: Doesn\047t something about this scenario feel a little bit like...well...fiction? At once reinventing and paying homage to science-fiction classics, Armada is a rollicking, surprising thriller, a coming-of-age adventure, and an alien invasion tale like nothing you\047ve ever read before.
