Hyperion Cantos Book Series (Complete Set)

This book series describes the technology of the future. It definitely deserves credit for explaining where robotics is heading and how the collective electronic brains in these machines will have to work. But the book is mostly about an epic travels of several people who will try to prevent galactic war. The book is long winded but will paint the future for you. The first book “Hyperion” is the long beginning but necessary to begin with. It’s a deep thought book. Sometimes too deep and overly complex. But it’s impressive nonetheless. You can’t just read the beginning book and walk away from this long complex story. I’m on book two. The author doesn’t stop to explain anything. You have to figure things out as it develops. I think I need some Cliff notes at times but it’s an epic story of future generations.

I bought the first book and loved the addicting rich writing and storytelling so much that I ordered the other three books in the series a little before finishing the first. I am now halfway through the last book and I’ve been reading them for about a month. I had planned on reading and doing a lot of other things in my free time, but I just can’t stop reading these.

Martin Silenus is undoubtedly the most stubborn man to ever live— and he's also my favorite. Dan Simmons creates a world in great detail with mechanics that I still think about because of their intrigue. Within the covers, God and AI are thoroughly wrestled with, the absurdity and uses caused by time travel and portals are explored, the physical human implications of accelerating faster than C are dealt with by practical bio-engineering rather than mysticism, and deep philosophical concepts are put on display for a riveted audience. Read them, and you'll enjoy them. :)

Actual review is on the first book and is 4..5 stars. The first 21 pages tore out like a notepad due to poo based manufacturing quality.

The edition is nice, I love paperback books. It is not the highest quality of paper and gluing, but that's what paperback is. Otherwise the ink doesn't smudge, the pages are opening enough to be read and it's overall a good edition.

This is a great read, the author is very detailed in their scifi series and so glad I got these covers.

My grandson wanted these for Christmas and says this series is excellent.

The story is amazing, the print quality of the books cheap and splitting at the seams with barely any use. They should make a higher quality printing for these in paperback.

Superb series!

La mejor saga de ciencia ficción dura

Fantastic Sci-Fi series, and the cover art for these editions are the best available.

Livros muito bons, não darei nota baixa para não confundir com a qualidade da obra, mas infelizmente vieram com diversas avarias, tanto por mal caráter do vendedor quanto da entregadora (Skypostal)

lamentablemente me es imposible encontrarlo en español. Pero afortunadamente está le versión original y llegó sin problemas y un dia antes de lo previsto a Queretaro.
