Never Let Me Go was not my favorite book, but not a waste of time either. The story had some good highs and lows but it did not resonate with me personally.
Hyperion is excellent so far, I’m about halfway through and Simmons gives just enough information at the right time and pace to build the world out slowly and thoroughly, and each short story so far has left me contemplating for hours afterward. Definitely enjoying the journey so far but I have been warned not to expect definitive answers towards the end, so we’ll see.
Hyperion is my standard for space operas. The following book is pretty good and answers some things, but the rest of the series lacks the same poetic grandeur
Last book: Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
Current book: Hyperion by Dan Simmons
