The TechnoCore’s artificial intelligences manipulate events from beyond the reach of the rival empires, while the opening of the mysterious Time Tombs raises stakes that reach across time and space. The book brings together interstellar power struggles, artificial intelligence, and a central mystery whose implications extend beyond any single world.

Book overview

LOCUS AWARD WINNER - The multiple-award-winning science fiction master continues the epic adventure that began in Hyperion, where the opening of the Time Tombs threatens to alter the very fabric of time and space, in the second novel in the Hyperion Cantos.

"One of the finest achievements of modern science fiction."--The New York Times Book Review

The shadow of war has fallen on the Web. In the corridors of power on Tau Ceti Center, chaos reigns. Out of reach from the clashing empires, the artificial intelligences of the TechnoCore manipulate everyone and everything. And on Hyperion itself, where battle rages in the skies and on the streets, the mysterious Time Tombs are opening. And the secrets they contain mean that nothing--nothing anywhere in the universe--will ever be the same.
