Pierson's puppeteers,strange,three-legged,two-headed aliens,have discovered an immense structure in a hitherto unexplored part of the universe. Frightened of meeting the builders of such a structure,the puppeteers set about assembling a team consisting of two humans,a puppeteer and a kzin,an alien not unlike an eight-foot-tall,red-furred cat,to explore it. The artefact is a vast circular ribbon of matter,some 180 million miles across,with a sun at its centre - the Ringworld. But the expedition goes disastrously wrong when the ship crashlands and its motley crew faces a trek across thousands of miles of the Ringworld's surface.
