I heard him tell an interviewer that after the tragedy he started reading one book of sf or fantasy a day through high school, I think beginning with one by #LarryNiven.
Apparently the Tolkien stuck the most.

I think, I'm going to stop by my local-ish used bookstore, and see what I can find. I'm really on the lookout for Neutron Star by #LarryNiven #Kzinti

Update on Ringworld: DNF at 48%. I do not understand, even for its time, how some things passed the editorial stage. When Louis Wu says that if Teela was not there, he may have had to rape Nessus, that was it. I could not read any more of that. #ringworld #misogyny #larryniven #reading #books

Sooo, I am reading "Ringworld" by Larry Niven. I am not liking it. It has some interesting ideas, but the characters are all cardboard, I don't care what happens to them. I am going to finish it though, because it is the November read for my sci-fi book club. #reading #books #ringworld #larryniven

Ringworld may be the 'grandaddy' of all the other giant ring adventures on tv, film, and online like "Halo".

The "alt" in the picture above describes the ring. It's size might also be the 'grandaddy' of all-things-impossible-to-wrap-your-head-around.

The Ringworld is about one million miles (1.6 million km) wide and approximately the diameter of Earth's orbit, encircling a sunlike star. It rotates to provide artificial gravity 99% as strong as Earth's from centrifugal force. It has a habitable inner surface (equivalent in area to approximately three million Earths), a breathable atmosphere, and a temperature optimal for humans. Night is provided by an inner ring of shadow squares which are connected to each other by thin, ultra-strong wire. (wikipedia)

Another five star re-read. Such great conceptualization. Silly story by today's standards, but breakthrough space opera IMHO.

Decided to crack open my manga version of Larry Niven’s classic “Ringworld”. So much has been left out it feels a bit disjointed at times but it’s still enough to fill two volumes. #larryniven #ringworld #manga
