"the faction of the TechnoCore known as the Reapers (!?) used violent and soldier aspects of Fedmahn Kassad's personality and DNA, then mutate, twist, and incorporate them into forging the Shrike."
I need to read more into this!
I highly recommend the series!
The first book, Hyperion, is written in the same style as The Canterbury Tales, featuring an ensemble of protagonists on a pilgrimage to a holy site known as the Time Tombs. On the journey, they each take turns telling the tale of why they were chosen for the pilgrimage.
That sounds really fun.
I hate the stories that have 30 chapters of exposition before "the thing" happens.
I get you, but don't worry. There is plenty of thing happening before the end.
Definitely.
Sorry, I didn't phrase my response well.
Your recommendation sounds great and very different from most stories I encounter. I look forward to reading.
