HYPERION
THE FALL OF HYPERION
ENDYMION
THE RISE OF ENDYMION
Â
On the planet Hyperion, beyond the reach of galactic law, waits a creature called the Shrike. There are those who worship it. There are those who fear it. And there are those who have vowed to destroy it. On the eve of Armageddon, with the known universe at war, seven pilgrims set forth on a final voyage to Hyperion seeking the answers to the unsolved riddles of existence. As the Shrike anticipates their mission, each traveler nurtures a desperate hopeâ€”and harbors a terrible secret. And one may hold the fate of humanity in his or her hands.

Praise for The Hyperion Cantos
Â
â€œFor vastness of scope, clarity of detail and seriousness of purpose, Simmonsâ€™s epic narrative is on a par with Isaac Asimovâ€™s Foundation series, Frank Herbertâ€™s Dune books, Gene Wolfeâ€™s multipart Book of the New Sun and Brian Aldissâ€™s Helliconia trilogy.â€â€”The New York Times Book Review
Â
â€œDan Simmons has brilliantly conceptualized a future 700 years distant. In sheer scope and complexity it matches, and perhaps even surpasses, those of Isaac Asimov and James Blish.â€â€”The Washington Post Book World
Â
â€œState of the art science fiction . . . This work will be that against which all future works will have to be measured, in the same way, in their time, that Asimovâ€™s Foundation series and Le Guinâ€™s The Left Hand of Darkness set new standards.â€â€”Asimovâ€™s
Â
â€œSimmonsâ€™ own genius transforms space opera into a new kind of poetry.â€â€”The Denver Post
Â
â€œA major work . . . Simmons doesnâ€™t just promise; he delivers.â€â€”Science Fiction Chronicle
