Endymion by Dan SimmonsDescription: The year is 3126 and, on the world of Hyperion, twenty-seven-year-old Raul Endymion is executed. Because he has not converted and accepted the resurrecting symbol of the cruciform, this means final death for him. So when Raul wakes up - alive - in the abandoned university of Endymion, half a continent away, he finds that he has been chosen to undertake a world-changing quest to make history. For Martin Silenus, old poet and author of the notorious Cantos, has picked Raul to accompany his niece into the future, and to protect her there until her destiny to become the One Who Teaches is fulfilled. The daughter of Brawne Lamia and the cybrid John Keats, eleven-year-old Aenea stepped into the Sphinx 263 years ago and when she emerges in only forty-two hours' time, it won't just be Raul who's waiting for her...
Also in this series are Hyperion, The Fall of Hyperion, The Rise of Endymion
