Well, this book made me feel like my geek/nerd card is herby revoked. And I know that I'm a very geeky person. But some of things mentioned in this book totally went over my head. 
 I was excited to begin reading this book, as I hope was previously surmised by my first statement. I have played video games and watch anime and read comics since I was a kid. I was so excited to read about people like me, especially since I had such a blast reading Ready Player One. So I hunkered down, and realized that I had almost nothing in common with the peeps in this book. 
 Story after story involved Star Trek, which I never really got into, LOTR, Star Wars (still no like), speaking Klingon, Larping... well, my place of grow-uppage didn't allow for D&D or Larping so that's out of course. I found myself desperately searching for something I had in common with these awesome guys, but... I couldn't find anything. I even used my Kindle to search for keywords. Playstations, PS4, Metal Gear, anything. I couldn't find anything that could connect me to these people save Firefly. 
 The writing was good overall from the authors, but as you can tell I was bummed reading about it. I felt a little further removed from what I assumed were my brethren. Doesn't make it a bad book, but definitely I would have adored this anthology a lot more if there were a wider variety of topics and fandoms and parts of the geek world talked about.
