I know this is on a lot of "top 100 sci-fi" books, so maybe I'm just missing something, but I found this series frustrating to read. It was interesting world building, and I found myself interested...

Arguably the best sci-fi book ever written, the first two in the series are just incredible. It's a tough read (definitely some complex prose), but it's a special book/series.

Actually it's part of a four book series. Hyperion, Fall of Hyperion, Endymion, and Rise of Endymion. I was confused about the cliffhanger comment. Now it makes sense if you stopped at book two.
