Worm mentioned wooooo

amazing how a niche webserial from 10 years ago is still being read and having an impact

also, the ride doesn't have to end, lots of Worm fanfictions out there, some of them are really good

The Hyperion series is spectacular and a must-read for any scifi enjoyer.

I knew about it for over a decade, but didn't read it because the premise sounded quite dumb, lol.

Pilgrims?

A random monster?

WTH?!

But it was very sci-fi-y in the end. Interesting concepts, not too soft on the science.

Loved it.

More a "must try" than a "must read". I enjoy reading SF, and didn't like the Hyperion and Endymion series...
