Happy birthday to American science fiction and horror writer Dan Simmons, born today in 1948. Simmons is the author of the Hyperion Cantos and the Ilium/Olympos cycles, among other works which span the science fiction, horror, and fantasy genres. #DanSimmons

Approximately halfway through #DanSimmons' Drood; I have so far resisted googling a single thing about #WilkieCollins, #CharlesDickens, or #TheMysteryofEdmundDrood. Delayed gratification FTW.

Step-by-step acrylic painting of the Shrike from the Hyperion Cantos. Early stages with rough brushstrokes and minimal detail, showing the initial shapes and composition.
Later stages of the Shrike acrylic painting, with refined details and lighting. The creature’s form is more defined, with sharper features and stronger contrast.
I thought you might be interested in seeing the step-by-step process of my Shrike painting.
Inspired by the character created by Dan Simmons in the Hyperion Cantos science fiction series.

Ink sketch of the Shrike from the Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons. A spiked creature drawn with an evil look. Work in progress.
Making progress on my ink sketch of the Shrike from the Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons. Do you think it should stay black and white, or would color improve it?

Acrylic painting of the Shrike, a spiked creature standing with an evil expression and holding a baby in its blade-like hands. The image is mostly black and white with small touches of red.
Another interpretation of the famous Shrike from the Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons. This time in acrylic.

Work-in-progress sketch of the Shrike from Dan Simmons’ Hyperion Cantos. A tall, spiked, metallic creature covered in blades and thorns.
I’ve been working on this drawing of the Shrike from the Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons, one of my favorite sci-fi series. Still a WIP, just a sketch for now.
I recently heard that Dan Simmons passed away. I was very sorry to hear it...

💡 Aujourd'hui, petite remise en lumière sur "Terreur" de #DanSimmons. Avez-vous lu cet ouvrage ? Qu'en avez-vous pensé ?
➡️ www.legaliondesetoiles.com/%F0%9F%93%9A...
41 Tage habe ich für 1450 Seiten gebraucht. An den meisten Tagen waren es nur je 10 Seiten, aber gestern habe ich die letzten 300 in einem Rutsch gelesen.
Mir ist jetzt nach der Fortsetzung.

RIP #DanSimmons. If you claim to be a reader and you have not read his Hyperion Cantos, then you really need to take a good look at yourself.

Rest in Peace Dan - one of my role models for fiction writing and being an author. The heart of Shakespeare and Asimov in one chest. Mahnmut and Orphu will remember you long after humanity has gone 😉.

R.I.P. #DanSimmons. “Song of Kali” is a gutwrenching treatise on the both the allure and horrific futility of vengeance and violence that will stay with you long after you put it down.

Potem pojawił się pieprzony edytor tekstu.
Potem procesor myślowy.
A potem nastąpił koniec literatury."

And the way my wife and I commemorate the passing of Dan Simmons is to remember a dearly departed friend of ours. He gifted me the paperback version of Hyperion for my birthday. Not a new copy, but secondhand (which is fine - we were all struggling students at the time). However, our friend had […]
Okay, RIP Dan Simmons, author of the Hyperion Cantos, who has passed away. One of my favorite authors (no relation). Sigh. I said wasn't going to RIP anymore, but this one made me sad today. #DANSIMMONS #RIPDANSIMMONS
"Prayers To Broken Stones" is one of my favorite collections of short stories, and the Hyperion cantos is incredible. Sorry to hear of his passing, and even sorrier to learn of his ugly personal politics. 🫤 #RIP #DanSimmons
