On the world called Hyperion, beyond the law of the Hegemony of Man, there waits the creature called the Shrike. Seven pilgrims head to Hyperion to resurrect an ancient religious rite. All are bearers of impossible hopes and terrible secrets. A diplomat, a priest, a soldier, a poet, a professor, a detective and a navigator intertwine their lives and destinies in their pilgrimage in search of the Shrike and the Tombs of Time. Their personal stories make up a suggestive kaleidoscopic vision of the complex society in which they live and which, perhaps, they can save.
Daniel Joseph Simmons was an American science fiction and horror writer.
