The Fall of Hyperion by Dan Simmons
On the world called Hyperion, beyond the law of the Hegemony of Man, there waits the creature called the Shrike. …
The first third of the book is dreadfully slow and dry, the middle is alright, and it ends with a Benny Hill-esque chase sequence and then suddenly the book abruptly ends.
All-in-all it's a rather unimpressive book full of misogyny, and it's quite clear that Bram Stoker had never had an actual conversation with a woman in his whole life.
I wouldn't recommend reading it, but I guess there are worse books around.
