<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Winner of the Hugo and Nebula Awards for best novel</b> <p/>Four travelers come to the ringworld. . . <p/><b>Louis Wu: </b> human and old; bored with having lived too fully for far too many years. Seeking a challenge, and all too capable of handling it. <p/><b>Nessus: </b> a trembling coward, a puppeteer with a built-in survival pattern of nonviolence. Except that this particular puppeteer is insane. <p/><b>Teela Brown: </b> human; a wide-eyed youngster with no allegiances, no experience, no abilities. And all the luck in the world. <p/><b>Speaker-To-Animals: </b> kzin; large, orange-furred, and carnivorous. And one of the most savage life-forms known in the galaxy. <p/>Why did these disparate individuals come together? How could they possibly function together? <p/>And where, in the name of anything sane, were they headed?<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Larry Niven</b> was born in 1938 in Los Angeles, California.
