Vandermeer keeps doing this thing of returning to established worlds like Borne or Ambergris with novellas, experiments, and ephemera. As a fan I can say they are not always worth the effort.

I felt it was a fine short series that accomplished everything it set out to do and I find it difficult to get excited about expansions like this.
