Description

A modern science fiction classic, Larry Niven's Ringworld won the Hugo and Nebula Awards for best novel in 1970. Now this SF classic is adapted into a thrilling manga adventure by Robert Mandell and Sean Lam.

In Ringworld: The Graphic Novel, Part One, two-hundred-year-old human Louis Wu is recruited by a two-headed alien named Nessus to join him, a catlike warrior alien named Speaker, and the infinitely lucky human Teela Brown to explore an alien artifact.
They find a Ringworld, a ribbon millions of miles long built around a distant sun. The civilization has fallen into savagery, though, and after crashing into the Ringworld, Louis must come up with a clever plan to get back to known space, hundreds of light years away.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

    As a Fan since first edition, my hopes to SEE the Ringworld were high. This novelette provides glimpses..truly, of all series, this one deserves color. The story pace is excellent IF you know the series. Otherwise, I would think a new reader may be well and truly lost. I sincerely wish this effort well, will keep reading and praying for the movie, now that it is within technical reach.
