Its a really complex mind bending book. Lots of biblical references and lots of keats poetry. Worth the read.
Another great book. This is the conclusion of the first half of the Hyperion/Endymion series by Dan Simmons.
In it, he abandons the individual story telling style of the previous book and switches to a more common narrative style, but this doesn't lessen the book at all.
It is definitely just as gripping as the first, and makes for a very satisfying conclusion.

Love, love, love. The first book of the series was merely a prequel to The Fall of Hyperion. Thoughtful and complex, this one was a page turner to the end. I highly recommend the book 1/book 2 set, even if you don't think of yourself as a "sci-fi" fan.
