What Would an Alien Megastructure Look Like? Ringworlds with Larry Niven and Gregory Benford

From both Gregory Benford and Larry Niven comes a thrilling, hard science fiction series, Bowl of Heaven, that follows a human expedition to another star system that’s suddenly interrupted by a gigantic artifact floating in interstellar space. The bowl-shaped structure engulfs an entire star, and has a habitable area equivalent to many millions of Earths.

Gregory Benford is a physicist, educator, and award winning author. Larry Niven is an award winning author, best known for his book Ringworld.
