Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons
Came here for this comment, wasn't disappointed.
Maybe? It's been decades since I read it, but I remember enjoying Hyperion and fucking hating Fall of Hyperion. It felt like Hyperion was amazing and well thought ought but then Fall was just mailed in.
Because Fall rushed the story with a fuck ton of plotlines. It really should have focused on continuing the story and have a third book conclude the major plotlines. That way a lot of things that happened wouldn't feel like they were pulled out of left field.
