Larry Niven, a multiple award-winning author, is renowned for writing science fiction which is solidly based on authentic science. His Known Space series is possibly the most popular SF series of all time, and includes the novel Ringworld, which is one of the few novels to have won both the Hugo and the Nebula Awards, and is recognized as a milestone in modern science fiction. He and his wife live in Chatsworth, California.

Jerry Pournelle is a reigning master of military science fiction, widely known for his novels of John Christian Falkenberg and his legion of interstellar mercenaries. His other novels include Janissaries, Exiles to Glory, High Justice, King David’s Spaceship and Starswarm.

    Broken formatting - impossible to read

    Clearly nobody at Barnes and Noble even tried opening this on a nook. Its impossible to read. I tried every combination of fonts from tiny to huge and margin settings.

    Exceedingly poor QA, its very clear NOBODY tried opening this on a nook, or the nook app for Android OR the Nook app for PC's. I still tried reading a few pages, and the tiny part I could make out was compelling. Selling this as broken as it is shows a total lack of any quality control. Terrible disservice to the Authors too.
