My biggest concern is always spoilers (I don't even read the back cover first for fear of spoilers).

Cytonic and the three novellas do all happen at the same time, and there are tiny pieces of overlap that could theoretically be called minor spoilers in both (so Cytonic contains minor spoilers for the novellas and the novellas contain minor spoilers for Cytonic). This problem is super minor in the novellas, but it could go either way with Evershore. I think it would have been a little less spoil-y to read Evershore first, since the end of Cytonic gives you a big hint about the end of Evershore (and part of what the whole book is building to), and while Evershore only provides a hint to something in the epilogue of Cytonic... so not something the whole book is building to.

So, in my opinion, call Evershore 2.3 and read it before Cytonic. Definitely read the three novellas in order, but, ultimately, you can read Cytonic at any point and not mess things up or get a lot of spoilers.(less)
Jared I think Goodreads puts it before Cytonic because it is part of a collection of stories set before. But you are right, it should be read after Cytonic.
Stephen No, it is also available on eBook. In April, 2022, a print version of all three novellas together is supposed to come out.
