Hyperion by Dan Simmons

Hyperion is the tale of seven people who make a pilgrimage to a terrifying creature called the Shrike in an attempt to save mankind.
Stunningly written and beautifully crafted, Simmons's Hyperion resonates with technical achievement and the excitement and wonder found only in the best SF.
Dan Simmons, a former teacher and director of programmes for gifted children, now writes full time. He lives with his wife and daughter in Colorado, USA. He has always been interested in writing, composing his first short stories at the age of nine.
Since then he has been co-winner of the first Twilight Zone Magazine short story contest, winner of the Rod Serling Memorial Award, and winner of the World Fantasy Award for Best Novel with Song of Kali. He is also the author of the much-acclaimed horror novel Carrion Comfort, winner of the 1990 Bram Stoker Award, the Locus Award for Best Horror Novel and the British Fantasy Award.
Hyperion is the winner of the 1990 Hugo Award and Locus Award for Best Science Fiction Novel.
