Summary:
The artifact is a huge circular ribbon of matter, some 180 million mls across, having a sun at its center. Pierson’s puppeteers-strange, three-legged, two-headed aliens-discovered this “Ringworld” inside a hitherto unexplored area of the galaxy. Curious about the immense framework, but frightened by the chance of conference the contractors, they go about assembling a team to explore it:
Louis Wu, human-old and uninterested in having lived too fully for way too many years, looking for an adventure, and all too capable of handling it.
Nessus, puppeteer-a trembling coward from a species with an inbuilt success pattern of non-violence. This particular puppeteer, however, is usually 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, will go disastrously wrong when their ship crash-lands and its motley crew faces a challenging trek across thousands of miles of Ringworld territory.
