Ringworld (Ringworld Series, Book 1), by Larry Niven

[This is the MP3CD audiobook format in vinyl case.]

[Read by Tom Parker - aka - Grover Gardner]

The artifact is a vast circular ribbon of matter, some 180 million miles across, with a sun at its center. Pierson's puppeteers--strange, three-legged, two-headed aliens--discovered this ''Ringworld'' in a hitherto unexplored part of the galaxy. Curious about the immense structure, but frightened by the prospect of meeting the builders, they set about assembling a team to explore it:

-Louis Wu, human -- old and bored with having lived too fully for too many years, seeking an adventure, and all too capable of handling it.

-Nessus, puppeteer -- a trembling coward from a species with an inbuilt survival pattern of nonviolence. This particular puppeteer, however, is insane.

-Speaker-to-Animals, kzin -- large, orange-furred, and carnivorous. The kzin are one of the most savage life-forms known.

The party's expedition, however, goes disastrously wrong when their ship crash-lands and its motley crew faces a daunting trek across thousands of miles of Ringworld territory.

Review
''Tom Parker [aka Grover Gardner] captures the personalities of the travelers through individual vocalization and provides smooth, expressive narration. The listener is soon caught up in the adventures of these vivid characters as they struggle to survive . . . a rousing adventure.'' --AudioFile

''Niven's style is such that you can be awed, then titillated, then amused all on the same page. . . . After more than thirty years, the story remains interesting, and the ideas fascinating. I highly recommend this audiobook, whether you've experienced Ringworld already or not. I enjoyed every minute.'' --SFFAudio.com

''[Parker-aka- Gardner] skillfully uses inflection and timing to heighten drama or highlight humorous details as appropriate. Parker (aka-Gardner) deftly brings to life Louis Wu and other members of the 'motley crew' . . . This is SF--and narration--at its best.'' --Kliatt

A new place is being built, a world of huge dimensions, encompassing millions of miles, stronger than any planet before it. There is gravity, and with high walls and its proximity to the sun, a livable new planet that is three million times the area of the Earth can be formed. We can start again!

I should have read this a lot sooner.
By Warren B. Westcott
I would have loved this as a teen. I picked it up again at age 69 because it is a SF classic that I had never read. It's probably just my mature age and the experiences that have made me more serious minded, but I find it to be a pretty silly, contrived novel. I'm going to finish it, though, just so I can say that I know what it is all about.

Great book, unbearable editing!
By Kiki1701
I have been in love the "Tales of Known Space" since I was a young girl. Niven actually built an entire world inside his stories, both large and small.

But after listening to the Audible version of this book, I could barely get through even the sample of the book because listening to the narrator was a lot like biting on aluminum foil, or sliding down Olympus Mons by your fingernails with a ground made of chalkboard. So I decided that I could forgo the spoken version in lieu of own imagination, as disappointing a choice this was.

However, I've never heard of this editing company before I saw this ebook, and, upon looking into it after being repeatedly insulted by such poor editorship, I looked online, on its "website," it honesty like it operates out of someone's basement.

The reason I removed a star from this book is because of the fact that this ebook has the worst editing I've ever seen in my life! As I looked at the photos of this Mickey Mouse operation, it shows two people at cheap desks, and it's hard not to think that that they might be relatives of Mr. Niven who who received a "gimme" because of their close family ties, as the site is so cheaply made that's it's easy to believe that these two -- a teenager and his "Mom" perhaps? -- because no professional company would ever release such printed drivel and expect to remain in operation in the world of print. I wonder why Tor was not the printing company...

The word "you" is the most battered, coming out as "yon," other words are either spelled incorrectly because of the normal location-based keyboard accidents, but for others, there simply is NO explanation for how any typist could have tapped most of these words into a line. And worst of all, some mistakes are SO incorrect that, unless you have a vocabulary that's extremely well versed in not just SciFi but in Known Space, you will likely end up not having the slightest idea what the writer is saying!

If you can find this book from any OTHER editing company, I suggest you do so!

Great choice for my first E-book and Audio book combo.
By B. Walter
This is a long time classic. I have owned a few copies of this book over 20 years. Someone always seems to walk off with this good read! So, as I am new to E-books and limited experience with audio books, I will review both.
Ringworld is an entertaining Sci Fi novel, filled with high tech gadgets, space travel and interesting characters. Even though it was written as a stand alone novel, I highly recommend the sequels as they just seem to delve deeper into the world's Larry Niven has created.
The audio book is fantastic! Expertly narrated, with great voice inflection for emotions as well as the different voices of different characters.
If I had these 2 options separately, I would be content. However... since I bought the E-book and Audio Book as a bundle, I have the best of both worlds. I have them paired with the Kindle app (w/ Whispersync) on my android phone. Hello multitasking! I can now read along with the audio, walk away and listen for a bit, and jump right back to reading without skipping a beat.
I am so very happy I got the combo.

On another note, I was initially upset that this was unavailable on Google Play Books. The sequels and a shoddy comic are there, but not this classic original. Shame on Google for leaving out the first novel of this series. Well... I guess Google's loss is Amazon's gain. THANK YOU.
