The multiple-award-winning science-fiction master returns to the universe that is his greatest triumph - the world of Hyperion and The Fall ofHyperion - with a novel even more magnificent than its predecessors.

Dan Simmons's Hyperion was an immediate sensation on its first publication in 1989. This staggering multifaceted tale of the far future heralded the conquest of the science-fiction field by a man who had already won the World Fantasy Award for his first novel (Song of Kali) and had also published one of the most well-received horror novels in the field, Carrion Comfort. Hyperion went on to win the Hugo Award as Best Novel, and it and its companion volume, The Fall of Hyperion, took their rightful places in the science-fiction pantheon of new classics.

Here, Simmons returns to this richly imagined world of technological achievement, excitement, wonder and fear. Endymion is a story about love and memory, triumph and terror - an instant candidate for the field's highest honors.

Doesn't quite live up to Hyperion, but not much could. Still an excellent continuation. Stands alone from previous books in the series...familiar setting, very different story

Very good science fiction

Lordy how I wish they would make a good movie out of these books... The writing really makes you picture scenes and characters in your mind and is fully immersive. The story could easily lean towards being boring and drawn out but it successfully manages to avoid that somehow! I really loved this book.. And the new antagonist is one of the best bad guys (girl) I have come across in the story.. Truly creepy and imposing!

Can't wait to get into the next one.

Performance wise I actually forgot it was only one person doing all voices.. Does an excellent job of switching up voices for characters without sounding campy.

One of the all time best..
