UI's "Modern Masters of Science Fiction" series is a real treat, looking at authors' entire bodies of work—they're set up to provide an overview of the entire bibiliography, but also add context and highlight important themes and concerns. Primarily breadth, but with enough depth to give a feel for where you might want to read or think more about the author. Anyway, this one was very good; I was in a bit of an Egan mood this year, and he's prolific enough that it was useful and interesting to have Burnham's take on his career thus far as a whole.
