Book Review: Hyperion + The Fall of Hyperion by Dan Simmons (sci-fi)

The first two books of Dan Simmons' Hyperion Cantos series are a pair, meaning you have to read them in succession. The first book is an anthology of stories fleshing out the pilgrims who are on their way to Hyperion, while the second book is the collective payoff afterwards.
