Someone please confirm for me... the sequel to Larry Niven's book
"Ringworld" is "The Ringworld Engineers", yes, followed by "The Ringworld
Throne"?
If so, I'd like the second one, "Ringworld Engineers" brought to the film
and/or pub if at all possible please mr/miss librarian! Ta!
These are all brilliant, though I found the Ringworld series less read nad
read again than the Protector stuff :-)
As for the Man-Kin series, they are all written by other authors, set in the
same world, to an astounding standard. Lats I knew,
IFIS was missing som of
them: I could never remember which ones we had. If this was checked and the
others bought, I would *love* to read them all. Of course, I'm happy to wait
whilst others ploug through them, but it would be nice to read them over the
holidays: Nick and I could swap them or some such. Larry Niven is one of my
favourite authors, which shows from the amount of his books we had, as I
used to try and get as many as possible.
If you want an intro to his stuff, read Inconstant Moon, in the anthology of
that name. I cannot tell you the number of times I have read and been awed
by the way this little story gets to me. The rest of them are pretty good
too.
Heh, I'm ranting about fiction, for a change :-)
