La aventura épica de Hyperion alcanza su clímax cuando los peregrinos se reúnen ante las Tumbas del Tiempo y éstas se abren para liberar el Alcaudón. Los humanos de la Hegemonía y de los enjambres éxter, las Inteligencias Artificiales del TecnoNúcleo, los peregrinos del Alcaudón, el cíbrido que reproduce la personalidad de John Keats, se verán envueltos en la compleja trama del tiempo, del poder, la guerra, la inteligencia, la religión y el amor. Con gran maestría, Simmons logra en La caída de Hyperion una brillante conclusión al articular hábilmente todas las piezas temáticas presentadas.
Evidente homenaje a John Keats, la saga de Hyperion es, a juicio de todos los críticos, uno de los títulos fundamentales de la ciencia ficción moderna.
this book avoids a lot of the problems of its prequel. the story is richer, the characters are more interesting and interact with each other more, the gigantic world is explored and detailed more, and the large-scale philosophical + political developments are crafted with patience and precision. I feel fulfilled after being slightly disappointed by book 1 overall.
Simply amazing book even though not that much is happening after all. The different characters stories were told so differently and engaging it really felt like the character telling his story. Obviously the stories were also very good, especially the one about the child.
The beginning feels a bit overwhelming with all the terms of this science fiction world but in time you'll understand the world more and more. And all the worldbuilding is done "on the way" - it never gets in the way of the story being told itself.
If you like science fiction i'd urge you to read this book, at least the first story (you'll know when it's finished).
