Hyperion started off very strong. Simmons has a way of leading you to a certain conclusion then turning you upside down with a sentence or two. It's thrilling and intense. There were a couple stories that left me wanting more but not in a good way. My biggest complaint is that this isn't a complete story. This 500 page book is really just the first half of a story. I just wish I knew from the beginning that I was making a 1000 page commitment.
