Interestingly enough - Hyperion never came on my radars.
Really enjoyed the first book, but then - it just went downhill. Kinda feels like the author had the story well thought and figured out - but somewhere around beginning of the Fall of Hyperion - the storyline notes book got lost to a house fire and he had to wrap it all up with something else... Too many logical incongruences - even for a brain freshly massaged by psychedelics.
Have the next two books of the series and no taste to open it... Yes, I'm totally spoiled.
If I had to throw in my .02cents to the list - these two should be on it:
Heinlein - Stranger in a strange land
Nathalie Henneberg - The Plaigue
don't believe - the latter is available in audio format in English, however - being originally written in French - it can also be found in other languages
