Beyond his collections, Baxter has published individual stories and novellas as standalone items over the years. These range from novellas long enough to stand alone as ebook publications to shorter pieces issued individually.
The quality and accessibility vary. Some are closely tied to his major series and reward familiarity with those settings. Others are genuinely self-contained and offer a quick introduction to his style for readers who are not ready to commit to a full series.
