One Response to Technorama Ep 326 – Robot Overlords

  1. Chris Hansen says:

    Chuck,

    Great obscure reference to “Crazy Eddie”. Larry Niven is a fantastic Sci Fi writer and his Mote in God’s Eye might just be his best work. Its hard to compare to Ringworld, but once you get beyond the idea of a “ring world” or Dyson’s sphere, the story is not remarkable. Moties…on the other hand…very cool.

    I hear there are two more sequel “Motie” books. If your listeners have read and recommend them, let us know.

    Thanks
    Chris (cant remember a meeting) Hansen
