Review: The sequel to the wonderful Ringworld, 'Engineers' continues the adventures of the human Louis Wu, the Kzin Speaker to Animals (now named Chmeee), kidnapped and brought back to Ringworld by the erstwhile Hindmost of the puppeteers to try to nab Ringworld technology. Ringworld Engineers evokes the same sense of wonder as the first novel, providing greater detail (and also th creators) of the vast artefact. Highly recommended

Review: As sequels go Ringworld engineers is a good book, but it's not as engaging a read as Ringworld. Most of the characters from the original are back for this follow-up, but it does feel very much like it was never intended and it's an add on rather than the conclusion of, or continuation of the first. After reading some of the reviews for later books i decided not to go any further than this book as I didnt want to ruin what is essentially a great story. If you liked ringworld, then you will like this, if you though ringworld was ok, but nothing special then i wouldnt bother.
