À propos de cet audio

It’s been 20 years since the quixotic and worldsweary Louis Wu discovered the Ringworld. Now he and SpeakertoAnimals are going back, captives of the Hindmost, a deposed puppeteer leader.

With Louis’ help, the Hindmost intends to regain his status by bringing back such extraordinary treasures from the Ringworld that his fellow puppeteers will have to be impressed. But when they arrive, Louis discovers that the Ringworld is no longer stable - and will destroy itself within months. To survive, he must locate the control center of the legendary engineers who built the planet.

His quest becomes a wild and gripping venture blended with the mysteries and spectacular technologies that only Larry Niven can conjure.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"The Ringworld Engineers has all the imaginativeness, convincing detail, and narrative vivacity that have come to be associated with the works of Larry Niven. Furthermore, it answers a lot of questions that have been tantalizing his readers for a long time. Most highly recommended!” (Poul Anderson)

This felt like the author felt obligated to write a sequel but didn't really want to.

it seemed forced

I should have read the description and reviews before buying. I loved the Ringworld book, and bought this based only on the title.
I was expecting a prequel about the builders of the ringworld, but in fact it’s a continuation of the original book, where the same characters play detective on the ringworld finding information about the builders.
I found this story very slow and tedious, forcing myself to listen once in a while, trying to make it through to the end, but finally gave up with 4 hours to go.
At least I have three credits now!

Struggled for two months and gave up

I bought all 3 books to see if it goes anywhere but this is anticlimactic. He took a great idea and made it almost mundane.No connection /depth to characters. Boring, I just want to return/exchange all 3

long and boring part 2
