scifi classic

The original and informal trilogy that began with Protector ends here. There's a fair bit more character development here than in Ringworld. I remember not liking this book as much as Ringworld, and now the tables are turned, which does I guess reflect that change in reading tastes. The whole trilogy is worth reading for scifi fans, as some pretty interesting ideas are present (evolution, life cycles, stellar engineering, superconductivity...just to name a few), and it is easy reading as well.


Great sequel from a great author

Larry Niven did a good job of creating a sequel to one of his most famous works. 'Ringworld Engineers' has several of the characters from the original 'Ringworld' returning and some new ones. Combine this with Niven's interesting technologies and you've got a book thats a great read and well worth its price.

Not Free SF Reader

This sequel to Ringworld, basically back by popular demand, takes a more in depth look at what it is like to actually live there, and at the beings that actually do.

More of the construction and engineering issues are also looked at, unsurprisingly.

Louis and Speaker To Animals return.
