I haven't actually added up the pages to see, but I'm pretty sure there was more Hyperion stuff than anything else in that book. Maybe it just felt like it though, in the "are we there yet" sense. :P Anyway, I'll give Ilium a try some day, but I can't say it'll be high on my priority list.

The Endymion books are... different. It's less of an ensemble. - 04/02/2010 07:15:41 AM 528 Views
