Samenvatting
LOCUS AWARD WINNER • The multiple-award-winning science fiction master continues the epic adventure that began in Hyperion, where the opening of the Time Tombs threatens to alter the very fabric of time and space, in the second novel in the Hyperion Cantos.
“One of the finest achievements of modern science fiction.”—The New York Times Book Review
The shadow of war has fallen on the Web. In the corridors of power on Tau Ceti Center, chaos reigns. Out of reach from the clashing empires, the artificial intelligences of the TechnoCore manipulate everyone and everything. And on Hyperion itself, where battle rages in the skies and on the streets, the mysterious Time Tombs are opening. And the secrets they contain mean that nothing—nothing anywhere in the universe—will ever be the same.

Geschreven bij: Fall Of Hyperion
The pilgrims have arrived at the Time Tombs and the Ouster invasion has started. This is the time of great turmoil, the time that the Time Tombs are opening and the future of the universe and humankind is reshaped. This book picks up right where ‘Hyperion’ ended and immediately continues on a high adrenaline rollercoaster ride. As different threads of the storyline are interwoven the mysteries and questions raised in ‘Hyperion’ are slowly resolved in a setup that is more linear in fashion than it was in ‘Hyperion’. The story only spans several days, but what a rush it is, jumping from cliffhanger to cliffhanger, keeping a constant level of high tension throughout. The scope of the stakes and forces at play is dizzying and the consequences terrifying … and all of this on a backdrop of a universe of vast imaginativeness spanning both reality and the AI datasphere, present and future. Occasionally the required imagination is stretched to the max when certain aspects could have been elaborated upon a little bit more, such as the history of the Ousters or the essence of the human and AI Ultimate Intelligences. However, these are just details and do not alter the fact that this is an accessible and thoroughly enjoyable novel. ‘The Fall of Hyperion’ is a very original, imaginative and fast paced novel that offers a very rewarding read!
