The Shrike is a beast that waits outside the boundaries of the Hegemony of Man on the globe known as Hyperion. Some people even adore it. Some people are afraid of it. And some people have made it their mission to destroy it. The Shrike waits for them all in the Valley of the Time Tombs, where massive, ominous buildings march backward through time. Seven pilgrims set out on a last journey to Hyperion on the eve of Armageddon, when the whole galaxy was at war, in search of the solutions to the unanswered mysteries of their existence. Each has a dreadful secret as well as a fervent hope. And one could be holding the key to humanity's destiny.
