Just in case anyone's a fan of this book and wasn't aware, there's also a short story kind of prequel to this book called The Day Before The Revolution that's free to read here.

For the new year, I'm going to try a thing based on a Ray Bradbury quote:
The best hygiene for beginning writers or intermediate writers is to write a hell of a lot of short stories. If you can write one short story a week—it doesn’t matter what the quality is to start, but at least you’re practicing, and at the end of the year you have 52 short stories, and I defy you to write 52 bad ones. Can’t be done. At the end of 30 weeks or 40 weeks or at the end of the year, all of a sudden a story will come that’s just wonderful.
So far I've only got half of one 'cause it's the first week of January, but I'm going to see how far I can get with it.
I own Hyperion but I haven't read it yet, it's one of those ones that was just perpetually in the backlog. I might have to bump it to the front now.
