5/30/2023 0 Comments Hyperion cantos booksThey also failed to answer a lot of the questions I had after reading the first two books, and a lot of the mysteries that were repeatedly mentioned in The Rise of Endymion were never solved. The last two books seem to me as though perhaps they would have been better as a part of a separate series since Simmons had to change parts of the previous two books in order to make them work and they used mostly different characters anyway. The other problem both my fiance and I had with the series was how fantastic things just happened with no explanation whatsoever as to how or why. It was definitely an enjoyable series, but it had a few continuity issues that were mildly annoying to me, and were even more annoying to others (like my fiance, who couldn’t even bring himself to finish the series because of the continuity issues). Overall, I liked the series, although I would not consider it one of my favorites by the time I was finished with it. It was time for a lighter read since I just finished the four books in Dan Simmons’ Hyperion Cantos ( Hyperion, The Fall of Hyperion, Endymion, and The Rise of Endymion). Currently, I’m reading Thief of Time by Terry Pratchett. I seem to be getting more time to read in now, though. Or the time to read much, for that matter. I was quite busy for a while and unfortunately hadn’t had time to write.
