Talk:The Fall of Hyperion (novel)

message: Fixed the link to the following book, Endymion. The previous one led to Benjamin Disraeli's novel of the same name, rather than the Simmons book.--Werthead 14:45, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I've removed the multiple-edition listings from the infobox - infobox info should pertain only to the first edition printing of a book. Subsequent edition information belongs in a "Release details" section toward the end of the article. The info I've removed can still be found through the page history if anyone is curious. -- Antepenultimate 21:22, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

message: The part that says: " There are factions inside the TechnoCore that want to see The Hegemony disappear, because it has become too cruel."
is totally not true, part of the TechnoCore simply think that humanity is not useful for the development of the Final Intelligence and so is useless and dangerous to still coexist with humans.
This part of the TechnoCore is the one who talked the whole TechnoCore in the "destruction" of the OldEarth and since then they were against cooperation with humanity, long before the cruelties of the Hegemony or the existence of the Hegemony itself.
The part that says 
: All Thing - a real-time participatory democracy, much like a web forum, which is enabled by the TechnoCore's datasphere
is in open contradiction with the part that says
: It is basically a dictatorship run by a group of elected officials.
Apart from the open contradiction, i think that from the books we have no real knowledge of the true political form of the Hegemony. We don't know about the power balances
between the "AllThing" and the senate and the real grade of "democracy" in the Web.
The part that says: "No world is permitted to leave the Hegemony and many worlds were inadvertently forced into the Hegemony " needs citation, and this part:
"The water planet of Maui Covenant is an example of this. The population did not want to be part of the Hegemony, but whoever resisted were slaughtered by the military forces of the Hegemony and the planet ecology was fundamentally destroyed, so that the Hegemony worlds could exploit the planet's resources" is not correct iirc; only a fraction of the inhabitants of Maui Covenant is spoken of as "separatists".

thread_title:  THIS PLOT SUMMARY IS WAY TOO DETAILED 

message: Other than in Haruhi Suzumiya books, TV series and movie, has this actual book played a major bit in the plot for other media? Hcobb (talk) 23:14, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Appearance in tv and movies 

message: Starting tomorrow, I'll be splitting up the Plot Summary into two separate sections: Keats' narration of the pilgrims and his own experiences, plus those of Gladstone and the other Hegemony characters.  dci |  TALK   02:52, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
