Seikai no Danshō

Seikai no Danshō (星界の断章) is a series of books collecting short stories by Hiroyuki Morioka, set in the same universe and involving characters from his novels Crest of the Stars and Banner of the Stars. The word Dansho refers to a passage from a written work, but there is currently no consensus on how the title should be translated. One story from Seikai no Dansho I, Birth, was made into an anime OVA.
