Rise of Endymion
Dan Simmons (1997)

█ Formulaic "hero's journey". More bor-
█ rowing from "Dune". Tired of excessive
█ sex scenes and Simmons' inability to
█ illustrate girls aging without mentio-
█ ning their breast size. Gibson-esque
█ alien AIs. Orientalism a product of
█ its time, just as "0X"-esque AI lore.
█ "Beijing Flu" best-guessted historical
█ event. Hyperion cliff church remains
█ unexplained, unsure about maze worlds.
