I think the second Hyperion book rounds out the story nicely. I've never read about what is said online but I listened to both a couple of times, loved them, but never felt the need to read any further than that.
Agreed! The first novel is by far the most unique and the second is a nicely paced sequel. The third and fourth books have a drop off in quality but I still really like them as sf novels in their own right. Much more tame in style and execution. Simmons is an interesting author to say the least.
