De Soya is describing his worse fear aboard a ship being getting vented into space. So, like Dure’s numerous resurrections, would a vented soldier carrying a cruciform eternally resurrect as they drift through space… FOR ETERNITY? Or is there a clause in the resurrection that I’m forgetting?

I have been seeing so much praise for Between Two Fires that I’ve been itching to buy it. Read the first 30 pages online and the writing style did not seem enjoyable to *me* at all. May have to stake out at Barnes and Noble and just read half the book the there first. Bummer after making myself read through my shelf a bit before buying another freshie. Nothing against the book!

This has to be the defining quote of the series. I know we are set for doom and despair, but maybe this cope, but I can’t help but feel like this will be the defining moment of the L******* arc and ending of the series. Please god pierce

Down to discuss anything! Loved every page of it. Immediately watched and read a bunch of reviews, I can’t believe how split the opinion is??

I thought Simmons did a wonderful job of alternating viewpoints, the chaos of multiple POVs per chapter near the end really conveyed the frantic state that everyone was in. The addition of Severn was a bit rough at first, but he blended into the story incredibly well.

When I started Hyperion last month, I read a comment on this sub saying something along the lines of, “Simmons never introduces something he doesn’t later come back to explain”. And that was absolutely true! My favorite part about this, other than being a satisfying conclusion, was that nearly all of my questions were answered in very interesting fashion! Really scratched my sci-fi itch!

Now onto The Book of The New Sun before diving back into Endymion.
