Convergent Series is a collection of science fiction and fantasy short stories by Larry Niven, published in 1979. It is also the name of one of the short stories in the collection. The collection reprints the stories originally appearing in the 1969 collection The Shape of Space that were not part of the Known Space series (The Known Space stories were previously reprinted in 1975's Tales of Known Space and 1976's The Long ARM of Gil Hamilton). The collection includes newer stories, both fantasy and sf, some of which are in the Draco's Tavern series, none of which are in the Known Space series.
Famous quotes containing the words series and/or story:
“Life ... is not simply a series of exciting new ventures. The future is not always a whole new ball game. There tends to be unfinished business. One trails all sorts of things around with one, things that simply won’t be got rid of.”
—Anita Brookner (b. 1928)
“The psychiatrist’s office: the only place I can be sure my story will be treated as sad, but interesting.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
