Description
“An unfailingly inventive narrative . . . generously conceived and stylistically sure-handed.”—The New York Times Book Review
Two hundred and seventy-four years after the fall of the WorldWeb in Fall of Hyperion, Raoul Endymion is sent on a quest. Retrieving Aenea from the Sphinx before the Church troops reach her is only the beginning. With help from a blue-skinned android named A. Bettik, Raoul and Aenea travel the river Tethys, pursued by Father Captain Frederico DeSoya, an influential warrior-priest, and his troops. And the shrike’s enigmatic appearances continue.
Endymion is a story about love and memory, triumph and terror—and the continuation of one of the science fiction’s greatest sagas.

After a fantastic closing of the pilgrims journey in Fall of Hyperion, this feels a bit underwhelming. The storytelling is a bit confusing. It is also odd to read flashes of a future relationship between Aenea and Raul while she is still a child and he is already an adult. Anyways the world-building and the architecture of how history has happened in these last 200 years is magnificent! So creative! I’m curious about the last book.
