This is a book 0f many smaller stories compiled into one larger story structured like Chaucer's Cantebury Tales. I don't think I can add anything that other excellent reviewers haven't already said. I loved this book and I think you will too.
I still haven´t gotten around to reading the sequel to Hyperion and it´s been some time since I read this book. So I decided to listen to full cast narrated audiobook. The narration is excellent and it´s been a joy to listen to the seven stories told by seven different voices. I have to say, thoug...
Synopsis: On the eve of an interstellar apocalypse, 7 pilgrims journey to the planet Hyperion, to meet the Shrike; a creature that moves backward in time and kills the pilgrims who seek it. On their journey each one tells their story of what brought them to that point. I have mixed feelings about ...
It´s been about a week since I finished Hyperion and since I cannot stop thinking about this book I´m changing my initial star rating from 4 stars to 4,5 stars. Because who am I kidding, I absolutely loved this book and it might become a five star read upon a reread (which will happen at some point)...
سرگذشت هر شش زائر جالب و شنیدنی بود؛ اما از داستان پدر پائول دیور، سول وینتراب و کنسول بیشتر خوشم آمد---------خلاصهٔ سرگذشت «سیری و مرین» به فارسی:(سرگذشت این دو در فصل ششم کتاب آمده)http://esperigas.blogspot.com/2016/04/siris-rebellion.html
Wow. This is one of the most compulsively readable science fiction novels I've ever read, not surprising since a quick Google reveals it to be an acknowledged early-90s game-changing classic. Dan Simmons instantly leaps onto my figurative "must read everything by him" list. Not just a brilliant idea...
I first read Hyperion back when I was in high school and I always meant to go back since it definitely ends on a cliffhanger. At this point I knew I would have to reread it since I only vaguely remembered the storylines. It's still a fantastic book that is set up like a sci-fi Canterbury tales. Se...
With Hyperion, I've started on the last series in my Unfinished Series project, which I started last summer. This is another series where I'm re-reading part of it before finishing it off, and I remember liking Hyperion a lot when I first read it back in college. I remembered bits and pieces of it...
ugh, this book left me so irritated!The premise of this story is that there are 7 people chosen for the pilgrimage to the Shrike, who is kind of a f'ed up god on Hyperion who loves murdering people for seemingly no reason. These 7 pilgrims will all make a request to the Shrike and he will choose on...
One of the most exciting things to read is an outrageously ambitious science fiction novel, full of creative touches and clever plotting. Dan Simmons provides all of this in Hyperion. Hyperion deservedly won the Hugo and Locus awards in 1990, and does such a clever job of worldscaping its setting th...
