Absolutely riveting!

I loved this book, the premise was exciting, the story fast paced, action packed, with great plot twists. I engrossed and sucked into the story immediately, and finished far too quickly, I just wanted more! The characters were compelling and memorable, I fell in love with Ido and Alita immediately, I really enjoyed Brian Nishii's narration.

Easier to just watch the Movie

It is a great story, however I was left a bit disappointed in the fact that it is exactly the same as the movie. It has no extra scenes or information at all.
I was hoping that the book would give a little more insight and information than the movie did. But it literally played out exactly scene by scene like the movie, but just took 9+ hours to get to the end.

I did enjoy the listen. But just feel like I could have used a fraction of that time and just watched the movie again instead, in all its magnificent glory.

A good listen

The story was good but I found it jumped quite a bit and could have done with a bit more content and emotion It runs along the same sort of lines as rolllerball did back in the day. That set aside I would definitely recommend listening if you like any kind of sci fi.

Too short...

Good story, haven't seen the film yet but hoping it hasn't changed a great deal like ready player one.
Unfortunately the narrator voice s little annoying not being prejudice but had a problem emphasising his ssssssss 's

Pretty good

Not a bad story. I've not seen the movie but I enjoyed this story based on it. It might have been better as more of an audio drama than as a straight read through but otherwise Ok

Superbly Written and Narrated

You are in for a treat!
Start with the prequel and continue with this book which is glorious and magnificently narrated by Brian Nishii who adds so much and more to this story…

ottimo complemento alla visione del film

versione romanzata che fa il suo lavora senza infamia ma con alcuni guizzi, per chi sperasse di avere mole di informazioni sul mondo e rivelazioni, non ce ne sranno ma alcuni passaggi risultano più naturali e meno affrettati rispetto a quello visto sul grande schermo, in particolare per quello che concerne il personaggio di Hugo

Good story, shame about the narrator

Good story, which adds a lot of detail past that in the film but unfortunately the narrator's pronunciation of names is often atrocious. He seems to have done no research into how to say non-american names.
