Space Catitude 🚀Haven't been reading as much or as often as I'd like, but I did just finish Dan Simmons' "Hyperion" (1990 Hugo winner). I've been reading it in short bits for months (perhaps over a year? Not sure).I am a little frustrated by the ending -- I guess I will be buying "The Fall of Hyperion" soon.But it was a fascinating exercise in world-building, and it definitely achieved a brooding horror about the Shrike.<a href="https://realsocial.life/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScienceFiction</a> <a href="https://realsocial.life/tags/HugoNovels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HugoNovels</a> <a href="https://realsocial.life/tags/DanSimmons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DanSimmons</a> <a href="https://realsocial.life/tags/Hyperion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hyperion</a>
