Everyone on this forum has read both Hyperion, and The Fall of Hyperion, right?

1,000 pages of the best **** I've ever read. And re-read. Beyond ridiculous stuff that is so original, unique, so damn ambitious, and 100% fully realized.

Almost 30 years later and they both still blow my mind.

Oh, and this dude.....
