Praise for Dan Simmons and the Hyperion novels
HYPERION
“EXTRAORDINARY.” —Asimov’s Science Fiction
“SIMMONS MASTERFULLY EMPLOYS SF’S POTENTIAL.” —Locus
“A MAGNIFICENTLY ORIGINAL BLEND OF THEMES AND STYLES.” —The Denver Post
THE FALL OF HYPERION
“GENEROUSLY CONCEIVED AND STYLISTICALLY SURE-HANDED.… AN UNFAILINGLY INVENTIVE NARRATIVE THAT BEARS COMPARISON WITH SUCH CLASSICS AS ISAAC ASIMOV’S FOUNDATION SERIES, FRANK HERBERT’S DUNE, AND GENE WOLFE’S BOOK OF THE NEW SUN.”
—The New York Times Book Review
“DAN 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.”
—The Washington Post Book World
ENDYMION
[A] MASTERY OF FAR-FUTURE SCIENCE FICTION.”
—The New York Times Book Review
“A MAJOR WORK … SIMMONS DOESN’T JUST PROMISE; HE DELIVERS.”
—Science Fiction Chronicle
“BEST SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL OF 1995.”
—Rocky Mountain News
THE RISE OF ENDYMION
“SIMMONS’S SCOPE IS TRULY STAGGERING, HIS INVENTIVENESS CONTINUES TO IMPRESS, AND THE NARRATIVE OFFERS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“BRILLIANTLY REALIZED.” —Booklist
