Hyperion & The Tale of Two Twins

I finished reading the fantastic science fiction novel Hyperion last night. Dan Simmons weaves several wonderfully complex and touching narratives within the narrative. It takes all 482 pages to really start to understand the world and the characters that Simmons has carefully crafted.

For anyone who has read or plans to read Simmons inventive and exciting work, this short animation will help immensely with the concept of time dilation, which Simmons uses to great effect in the novel.
