I didn't like some super freaky parts like why do --- endlessly suffer on the --- thorny - avoiding spoilers here😅 But the wraps were always huge. I also hated Endymion on the first take, the romantic end felt so overdone to me. But overall it's one of the best sci-fi's I've ever read. The gods thing, gates, the creatures of freedom resonated with me, it was mindblowing even over the annoying parts. What's his name, C...? Well he wrote horrors, did scifi once and it shows. #hyperion #endymion It's like some Dunes before Herbert got sleazy and senile.
