Ugh. Unfortunately, yes, I have read it. I didn't like it at all. My freshman year of college, my Journalism teacher told me to read it as a fictional source of information on video games.
I think it was mainly the family thing; his brother and sister went bezerk on earth, and he far far far outlived them - never met them again, in fact.
I think I would have liked the book a lot better if there was more of a family thing in it, because I liked the idea, but... That ending thing with the giant and the egg was weird, too. O.o I wondered if it was explained in later books, but I didn't like it, so I've never actually been that curious.
