In the Fall of Hyperion, the author uses Catholic debates on the nature of Jesus' relationship to God as his premise to resolve the crisis created in Hyperion. It is an interesting and scholarly approach, but sometimes annoying. The religious overtones set me on edge from time to time, but not as much as the pacing. The story takes a long time to unfold and made me impatient often. Still, I liked it being an epic tale about the end of the world.
