On the eve of Armageddon, with the entire galaxy at war, seven pilgrims set forth on a voyage to the Time Tombs. They seek the answers to the unsolved riddles of their lives … and what they find may hold the key to the deliverance of humanity itself.
THE PRIEST—When he was young, Father Lenar Hoyt honestly believed in the Roman Catholic Church—despite the fact that history and change had made the Church wither away. But now his faith is shaken, troubled by the fate suffered on Hyperion by a man he once admired.

—Booklist

—Science Fiction Eye
“A magnificently original blend of themes and styles.”
—The Denver Post
“Highly literate examples of what science-fiction can do; the presence of these books—of this writer—will undoubtedly have great impact on a genre that too often confines itself to narrow hackwork.”
