Ringworld by Larry Niven Review

September 17, 2015

What would be really difficult for Ezra to understand for his #EasyMonth episode? How about a science fiction book about a two headed hand-faced horse who takes a giant cat, an emo dude, and the emo dude's sex friend across the universe to a man-made planet thing for no good reason? Yep. That.Ringworld is the incredibly sexist 1970s science fiction book about just such a journey. It's complicated and boring, like Larry Niven had some ideas about space and wanted to describe them for a couple hundred pages but couldn't think of a story to put around those descriptions.Happy honeymoon, Chris and Tanya. We miss you.
