Do I hear the librarian going "Ook"? Sir Terry must be turning in his grave.
Edit: Note -- I confused Ringworld with Discworld, as pointed out by rowyourboat below.
- rowyourboat 3y agoI think you are confusing rings with discs. Larry Niven is the one doing the spinning
- mangamadaiyan 3y agoMy apologies. You are correct indeed.
- zem 3y agoto bring this full circle, terry pratchett's early science fiction novel "strata" was largely a parody of "ringworld". not as good as his post-stride-hitting discworld books, but worth a read anyway
- nottorp 3y agoBut the "AI" recommendation does sound like it came from a Discworld book.
- mangamadaiyan 3y agoOn that note, I really wish someone would name their AI after Bergholt Stuttley a.k.a Bloody Stupid Johnson.
