In need of a good read.

Comment by Bec_de_Corbin

Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle. "Lucifer's Hammer" by Niven and Pournelle is an astroid strike disaster story which examines human behavior in extremis. Also recommended is Niven's "Footfall", which is an alien invasion and culture clash story.

Comment by wesley2006

If Niven approached the whole Ringworld business in less of a "hard SF" fashion & focused more on fleshing out the plot & characters, I may have looked more kindly at all the dry technical voodoo.
