Though this book by Ray Bradbury is a science-fiction classic (especially in high-school English classes), listeners say the story is much more interesting thanks to the narration by actor Tim Robbins. It is truly unputdownable, and I truly felt the stakes along with the characters.”

“This book truly flipped all the nerdy happy switches in my brain. When switching between the Kindle and Audible editions, I found myself reading the story in Wil’s voice and loving every second of it.” And several point out that it’s a fun casting, because Wheaton “even gets to name-check himself in the book, which is hilarious.” But even without the celebrity narration, this audiobook is well worth the listen because of the plot. One reviewer even says they prefer the audio version to the book because of Wheaton’s narration: “His mannerisms and use of inflection are outstanding and helped build a compelling world that sucked me in.

The huge mix of material has been put together so well,” says another recent listener. “This book is rich with settings that span time, space, games, movies, memories, and places. “I mean what ’80s baby wouldn’t appreciate an audiobook narrated by Wil Wheaton loaded with ’80s pop-culture references to boot?” asks one. Nearly 300 five-star reviewers think Wheaton is also the right narrator for Ready Player One.
