Industry Reviews "'Ringworld Throne' offers the usual Nivenian pleasures--the carefully imagined landscape; the observation of social interaction across species lines; the mystery-story and puzzle-solving strains, as characters figure things out from clues and work their ways out of predicaments with observation, intelligence, and the materials at hand." Locus - Russell Letson (07/19/1996)
