Endymion (Hyperion Cantos, #3)

3.0/4.0
STOP!
You've read Hyperion, right? Fall of Hyperion? You've noticed how breathtakingly brilliant they are and you want more?
Don't read these books yet. They're not a continuation. They use the same names in ostensibly the same world, but the underlying structure of the place has been changed entirely.
In other words, you're walking into a marketing trap. It looks like you're getting an extrapolation of the same concept, when in reality the Endymion books could've and should've been put in a completely new universe. It's an interesting place, worth visiting. But you should give yourself a lot of distance between the masterpiece Hyperion books and these lesser but still good books.
