	A Piece of the Great World	2005	In One Million B.C. ed. by Gardner Dozois. Science Fiction Book Club, 2005	Future history	Aeons after the events described in At Winter's End and The New Springtime, an archaelogical expedition sets out to uncover the origins of the People, before they emerged after the Long Winter.
	The Queen of Springtime	2005	Universsity of Nebraska Press, 2005	Future history	A new edition of the two volume series which began with At Winter's End and was originally titled The New Springtime, published in 1988 and 1990 respectively. This new edition contains a most interesting introduction concerning Robert Sioverberg's falling-out with his publisher, Warner, concerning the title, and why it is unlikely that there will ever be a third volume in the series. However, this volume contains the outline of the unpublished third volume, The Summer of Homecoming. These two books, together with Lord of Darkness, represent by far my favourite Robert Silverberg works, follewed by the Majipoor series.

"I've just signed on to write a new novella, tentatively called "The Last Song of Orpheus," to be published as an original book by Subterranean Press in 2010. I expect to write it this fall and it will probably run about 25,000 words, and, no, I'm not sneaking back into writing novel-length books in some gradual way by doing this one. It's a theme that appeals to me and I've been meaning to write it for the past two or three years, and finally the impulse to do it reached the surface. But it's just a novella, and I'm not quietly hatching any novels for later years. RS" (March 24 2009).
