I think that those people who prefer the "popular novel" such as Stephen King or John Grisham would prefer the Endymion books, as there is more adventure and less substance. I enjoyed both series, but they were obviously very different kinds of books.Jon said:Dan Simmons: Endymion and the Rise of Endymion (but not Hyperion and The Fall of Hyperion)Never before have I heard anyone express a preference for the second pair of Hyperion Cantos. In my eyes, _Hyperion_ and _The Fall of Hyperion_ are superior in every respect to the Endymion books, which I found extremely disappointing. What was the reason for liking those more?
