    Good but available in a bigger collection, 2006-06-19 Baxter's novella is an important part of his ongoing "Xeelee sequence"; if you are into the whole Xeelee thing then you MUST read this story!.
I bought a Gollancz book with 2 stories in it, this one
"Reality Dust" by Stephen Baxter, back-to-back with "Making History" by Paul McAuley. Both stories are very good (and are apparently both available as very short standalone books on their own).
However, later I found another book, "Futures: Four Novellas"
with these same 2 stories in it, PLUS 2 more good stories!
("Watching Trees Grow" by Peter F. Hamilton, and
"Tendeleo's Story" by Ian McDonald)....
So I would suggest getting the "Futures" book with all 4 novellas in it, if you can, over either volume with just Baxter's and/or Hamilton's ...
