Goddammit Saul/The Scholar's Tale is a tear-jerker. Hits harder when you're on the other side of your 20s for some reason.

Had to take a brief break until I had enough time to listen to the Poet's Tale in one sitting.
Goddamn Dan Simmons can write, and goddamn is Martin Silenus a fun character.

In dire need of some dense sci-fi so I'm getting into this again. Will be interesting to experience again having read the whole cantos now.
Much of the criticism of the cantos as a whole revolves around how Simmons retcons a bunch of lore and plot-points as he goes, but I can already see how some of the twists and turns have been setup or eluded to in the first chapter.
