An omnibus edition titled The Starchild Trilogy was first published in 1980.
Reception
Algis Budrys praised The Reefs of Space as "a most rewarding piece of science fiction . . . full of inventions [and] the constant generation of science-fiction ideas and science-fiction characters." However, he criticized its ending as "anticlimactic" and for its failure to resolve themes involving several prominent characters.[1]
