Does Endymion not hold up? I'm halfway through Hyperion's second part and don't know if I should pick it up after. I've only ever seen Endymion referred to negatively on /lit/, but without reasons given as to why it's bad.

It's a pretty good cologne, if I'm being honest. Great for Sundays.

Why does everyone praise Hyperion so much? Of all the sci-fi books consistently recommended, this one was painful to plow through.

I'm liking it well enough. During the first book, starting with the most interesting backstory and following with two of the least interesting was a bit of a bore, but all the bits of revelation near the end were satisfying. If you want painful, read New Sun.

Endymion is ok. It doesn't hold up to the first and each book is incrementally worse than the last
