About Deep Navigation

Created as the 2010 Boskone guest-of-honour collection, Deep Navigation gathers a broad range of Reynolds’s short fiction, from his first published story, Nunivak Snowflakes, to The Receivers and Monkey Suit. The volume includes an introduction by Stephen Baxter and stories spanning intimate settings to enormous cosmic scales.
