Overview
En el mundo llamado Hyperion, más allá de la Red de la Hegemonía del hombre, aguarda el Alcaudón, una singular y temible criatura a la que los miembros de la Iglesia de la Expiación Final veneran como Señor del Dolor. En vísperas del Armageddon y bajo la amenaza de una guerra entre la Hegemonía, los enjambres éxter y las inteligencias artificiales del TecnoNúcleo, siete peregrinos acuden a Hyperion para recuperar un rito religioso. Todos son portadores de esperanzas imposibles y también de terribles secretos. Tras los éxitos de La canción de Kali (premio mundial de fantasía) y Los vampiros de la mente (premios Bram Stoker y Locus de Terror), Simmons entró en el género por la puerta grande con este título y La caída de Hyperion, fundamentales en la moderna ciencia ficción.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
On the world called Hyperion, beyond the law of the Hegemony of Man, there waits the creature called the Shrike. There are those who worship it. There are those who fear it. And there are those who have vowed to destroy it. In the Valley of Time Tombs, where huge brooding structures move backward through time, the Shrike waits for them all. On the eve of Armageddon, with the entire galaxy at war, seven pilgrims set forth on a final voyage to Hyperion seeking the answers to the unsolved riddles of their lives. Each carries a desperate hope--and a terrible secret. And one may hold the fate of humanity in his hands. -
