If you like Terry Pratchett, you will like this book. Its written you a younger reader, but is full of fun and laughter that will engage the adult reader.

Not just a children book
As usual, Terry Pratchett brings a story that is funny and insightful at the same time. This is definitely the best of the "johnny" books, and the focus on videogames is interesting and treated in an original way.
