Niven question

I enjoyed Fleet of Worlds and its three sequels, by Niven and Ed Lerner. Do I want to go back and read Ringworld Throne and Ringworld's Children? I thought I might, but Wikipedia plot summary makes me wonder if I'll be interested in the Ringworld-denizen plotlines. Or the hyperspace revelation.

THRONE is a gripping actioner with some decent anthro-drama. I thought CHILDREN was okay; the larger plot ending was a bit anti-climactic but the personal story of Louis was more satisfying.

But I enjoyed ESCAPE FROM HELL much, much more than both put together.
