Farcaster

Who here has read Hyperion (Farcaster’s namesake)?

Can we get a Dan Simmons appreciation thread?

Just finished Carrion Comfort.

Also, the vintage sci-fi illustrations of farcasters are goated.

(Judging from the interests in your bio you should read the book)

Farcaster is named after a science fiction technology from the book Hyperion.

The ‘farcaster’ is an teleportal that allows characters in the book to step from one planet or world to another.

The inspiration for stargates and the namesake of Farcaster.

Great book. Sci-fantasy Canterbury Tales.

Can you explain more? I didn't understand properly.

Fantastic book, possible. My favorite ever. Rest of the series is really good but doesn't quite live up to the first book
