I am unintentionally rereading some things these days, but no serious regrets here. The House Beyond Your Sky is a very good exercise in far-future, or just far-speculative, fiction.

It's fun to read through the inventiveness here, that got it a Hugo nomination for best short story in 2007. I enjoyed it both times, and may remember it better now. Enjoy it for yourself.
