The Rise of Endymion is the fourth novel in the Hyperion Cantos series by Dan Simmons. In this installment, the Hegemony has been transformed into a theocracy ruled by Pax, the civic-military organization of the Catholic Church. Thanks to the control of the cruciform parasite, the Church offers immortality, making the new faith universal. However, Pax fears the arrival of a messiah: Aenea, daughter of the cybrid John Keats, who has taken refuge for almost three hundred years in the Time Tombs of Hyperion. Accompanied by Raul Endymion and the android A. Bettik, Aenea must flee Pax, counting on the collaboration of the Shrike.
