Endymion (Hyperion Cantos, Bk. 3) 127 reviews
Dan Simmons
Spectra, 1996
Rousing Science Fiction Adventure!
+ Great science-fiction/action book, only weakly related to the first two books.
+ Dan Simmons' "Hyperion" Series
Many fans of Dan Simmons' Hyperion series were not enamored of this more separate entity within the saga. It does not detract, however, from what a fun thrill ride this book truly is. You need not have read the first two books to enjoy this one, and in fact, it might be better if you haven't. ...

This translation by Edward G. Seidensticker sidesteps the errors of earler translations to paint a vivid portrait of the real & imagined environment of the world's oldest novelist. Murasaki Shikibu wrote about what she knew best: the rarified world of the Imperial Court of Heian Japan. Her ...

An Excellent Book, and Lovecraft DID Write it

The Del Rey trade paperback edition, with its wonderful introduction by Stephen Jones, reprints the Corrected Text edition published in hardcover by Arkham House. The other paperback editions probably reprint the corrupted text of the original hardcover, which was edited and in some cases ...

Absolute classic
+ War Weary, Top 10 Greatest Sci-Fi Books
+ Amazing Science Fiction Laced with Childish Homophobia
It's already been said, so I'll keep it short. This is a classic sci-fi war story with a totally different perspective than most war novels. It is an absolute must read!

The Green Mile: The Complete Serial Novel2 reviews
Stephen King
Plume, 1997
My Opinion on Green Mile Novel
While I am not finished with the book - nearly 1/3 finished. I have watched the movie several times, and the book so far follows the movie. (Some books and movies differ.) The plot is excellent and shows that good people help other good people and do their best to stay away from evil/bad people. ...

Few can compare to Tolkien for fantasty writing. Every time I pick up this series I find myself astounded by the beauty of the writing and the richness of the characters. It's different now that I've seen the movies. I find myself trying to picture places and things from viewing them on the TV ...

A Colossus of Speculative Literature
+ Rare in Scifi
From the first sentence, this epic tale, of a civilization lost in its own enormity, held me captive with its dark beauty. Haunting, vast, and yet deeply personal, it shatters the mold of traditional science fiction. The sense of mystery is palpable, and every question answered, every step toward ...

The Shining647 reviews
Stephen King
Pocket, 2002
One of the best psychological horror books out there.
+ Suffers because of the Movie
One of the best books in the psychological horror fiction. What's better than being stuck somewhere far away from society, surrounded by only your parents (which would be enough to drive anyone crazy, I think), and possibly surrounded by ghosts? A great mix.
