Narration Supposing Books The Endymion Omnibus (Hyperion Cantos #3-4)
ENDYMION Two hundred and seventy-four years after the fall of the WorldWeb in Fall of Hyperion, Raoul Endymion is sent on a quest. Retrieving Aenea from the Sphinx before the Church troops reach her is only the beginning. With help from a blue-skinned android named A. Bettik, Raoul and Aenea travel the river Tethys, pursued by Father Captain Frederico DeSoya, an influential warrior-priest and his troops. The shrike continues to make enigmatic appearances, and while many questions were raised in Hyperion and Fall of Hyperion, still more are raised here. Raoul's quest will continue. THE RISE OF ENDYMION The time of reckoning has arrived. As a final genocidal Crusade threatens to enslave humanity forever, a new messiah has come of age. She is Aenea and she has undergone a strange apprenticeship to those known as the Others. Now her protector, Raul Endymion, one-time shepherd and convicted murderer, must help her deliver her startling message to her growing army of disciples. But first they must embark on a final spectacular mission to discover the underlying meaning of the universe itself. They have been followed on their journey by the mysterious Shrike--monster, angel, killing machine--who is about to reveal the long-held secret of its origin and purpose. And on the planet of Hyperion, where the story first began, the final revelation will be delivered--an apocalyptic message that unlocks the secrets of existence and the fate of humankind in the galaxy.Define Books Conducive To The Endymion Omnibus (Hyperion Cantos #3-4)

Продължаваме представянето на един от най-големите научнофантастични епоси в съвременната литература Хиперион на Дан Симънс. Вече изказах възхищението си от първите два романа, събрани в един том, част от поредицана Велики майстори на фентъзи и фантастика на изд. Бард. Ред е на продължението Ендимион, съдържащо третия и четвъртия роман от цикъла. Прочетете ревюто на "Книжни Криле": https://knijnikrile.wordpress.com/201...Following on some 300 years after The Fall Of Hyperion, the two books of the Endymion Omnibus tell of the travels and travails of Raul, rescued from a death sentence and recruited by Martin Silenus to undertake the seemingly-impossible task of protecting a young girl, Anea, from the military wrath of a threatened and frightened Catholic Church. Their adventures take them through hyperspace and along the multi-planet River Tethys, with The Shrike making an unexpected re-appearance. The second
Alla pazzia disse. Alla divina follia. Alle insane mete e ai messia che gridano nel deserto. Alla morte dei tiranni. Alla confusione dei nostri nemici.Ebbene, se la prima parte dei Canti di Hyperion mi aveva lasciata stranita da tanta grandezza e assolutamente ammaliata dalla cultura immensa di Simmons, dalle sue citazioni e dai suoi rimandi storici, sociologici, religiosi, politici e letterari, questa seconda parte mi ha avvinto in un modo ancor più pervicace, tanto che alcune pagine di queste
Brilliant, has more history than the first two books but Dan handles it brilliantly, love this writer. And ending to make u think and enough sci fi concepts to keep u interested. Cant recommend this enough, possibly in my top 5 books ever :p
I'm speechless.It's magnificent.
The triumphant concluding novels to the Hyperion Quartet, together in one volume for the first time. ENDYMION Two hundred and seventy-four years after the fall of the WorldWeb in Fall of Hyperion, Raoul Endymion is sent on a quest.

A sequel that pretty much stands up for itself. The best thing about these books is the intricate, detailed, and bizarre universe they discribes. I particularly like the spaceships where in order to go faster than light people have to die and be resurrected. Truly strange.
