Armada (Ernest Cline)

This book is one of the most wild rides I've ever been on-and I didn't even have to leave my seat!

It starts out telling the story of Zack Lightman, an 18 year old boy stuck in a boring town with nothing but an obsession with the online video game Armada and the legacy of a father he never knew. Zack always dreams of adventure, until adventure shows up right on his doorstep-in the form of an alien spaceship right out of his favorite video game. Within 24 hours, he has been transported to the front lines of the adventure he always wanted, but with more consequences than Zack thinks he can handle.

This is a book I would give to any gamer or 80's sci fi enthusiast. While I am neither of those things, this book was immensely enjoyable and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time.
