"Hyperion" is one of the finest books I've ever read. I found myself thinking "How does he come up with this stuff?[*]" every couple of pages. One caveat - you really have to read the book very carefully and attentively, or you will not only miss a lot of wonderful little details, but you'll find yourself increasingly confused as you near the finale.
[*] My theory is - drugs. Lots and lots of drugs.
