Juggler of Worlds (Known Space, 2) - Softcover

LARRY NIVEN is the multiple Hugo- and Nebula-winning author of the Ringworld series, along with many other science fiction masterpieces. His Beowulf's Children, co-authored with Jerry Pournelle and Steven Barnes, was a New York Times bestseller. He lives in Chatsworth, California.

EDWARD M. LERNER has degrees in physics and computer science, a background that kept him mostly out of trouble until he began writing SF full-time. His books include Probe, Moonstruck, and the collection Creative Destruction. Fleet of Worlds was his first collaboration with Larry Niven. He lives in Virginia with Ruth, his wife of a mere thirty-five years.

“Niven and Lerner...adroitly expand upon familiar ground...and, at the same time, pour it into an entirely new bottle.” ―Starlog

“A far-future SF mystery/adventure set two centuries before the discovery of the Ringworld by humans. . . . . Intriguing human and alien characters and lucid scientific detail.” ―Library Journal on Fleet of Worlds
