By Dan Simmons - Hyperion (S.F. MASTERWORKS)

Written in 1967 by Clive Graham, at that time "The Scout" of The Daily Express. Superbly written with great photo's. Lord Derby gives an introduction which is a bonus.

cannot wait to read this masterpiece

Good book, very reasonably priced, promptly delivered

Wow... what a brilliant novel this is. Along with Hyperion (Hyperion and The Fall Of Hyperion are technically one novel). The Fall Of Hyperion is without doubt one of the very best works of fiction that I have ever read. The book immediately picks up from the end of Hyperion and continues the amazing story that takes the reader on a mind bending story that I found to be a staggering feat of imagination. The use of the word 'masterpiece' is perhaps often over used but I personally hold no reservations at all in saying that this is without doubt a MASTERPIECE. The writing is superb and really impressive. I will never forget how much I enjoyed the Hyperion experience and I hope that I get just as much out of the two books set 247 years later, Endymion and The Rise Of Endymion in the not too distant future. To summarise my thoughts, one word... outstanding.

I can't give anything other than a one star review for a book that was printed with missing pages. It seems I'm not the only person with a misprinted copy. What's interesting though, is that everyone seems to be reporting a different misprint. What exactly happened at the publishing company? Anyway, it's a little funny. I've written Orion direction to see if I can get a copy with all the pages.
