5.0 out of 5 stars Thinking as well as a man but different, July 7 2004
By B. M Purcell (Peoria, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Niven stages John Campbell's definition of 'the alien' against a humungous big backdrop. Niven minored in Psych, and in college his genteel nerves got him in the nut hatch.
Are Protectors Hans Eysenck's Psychopaths with thicker skins and big brains?
I got the RE serial in Galileo magazine twent years ago, and loved it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another solid Niven novel, Feb 3 2004
By William A. Hensler (Holt, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is money well spent. I enjoyed this novel and spent nearly a whole night reading it in one sitting. I will never tire of Larry Niven when he sticks to Known Space, the best of his fiction areas. I like the Pupperteers, the Kzin, and Pac. Larry delivers a nearly perfect end to the Ringworld series. I have had personal conversations with him back in 1983 and he never intended to make more Known Space books. Note, you should read this novel before reading "Ringworld's Children", due out in Summer of 2004. Enjoy it, I did!

4.0 out of 5 stars A good solid sequel, Jan 2 2003
If you enjoyed the original Ringworld, then Ringworld Engineers will be worth your time.

Twenty years after the first Novel, Louis Wu goes back to find the Ringworld's orbit has degenerated and will collide with its parent star in a matter of a few years. He decides to save Ringworld no matter the cost.

Although not quite as enthralling as the first installment, the book is worth the effort as Niven reveals who built the Ringworld and some more information on some of its intricacies. A good read and highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A welcome return to Ringworld!
I have rarely come across a sequel that continues a story as well as this. It's advisable to read "Ringworld" first, otherwise this won't make all that much sense. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not consistent with Ringworld (the first book)
This is a must-read for any fan of Niven's work, especially the known space series. I really enjoyed Niven's further discovery/elaboration of Ringworld engineering. Read more
