    Summary

    "Five years have passed since infamous pop rock band The Crows have permanently split without so much as a clue of what might have caused the sudden break-up. The former band’s dedicated and still very much active fanbase has, over time, accumulated an array of conspiracies and theories, many of which suggest a disastrous falling-out between at least half of the group.

    Has there really been bad blood between most of the crows all this time? Well, it now seems like the answer is yes! And nobody is surprised that it turned out to be none other than Jesper Fahey – former The Crows drummer turned part-time actor in a superhero franchise with a history of erratic behaviour and substance abuse – to stir the rumour mill and break the silence for good."

    OR

    What if Jesper did a tell-all podcast interview resulting in the band’s comeback?

    Summary

    Inej leans against the brick wall outside the front door of the Slat, crossing her legs on the sidewalk, communicating her nonchalance. Around a mouthful she says, “Waffles remind me of Nina, and the spice will last longer if I chew it. It’s a simple joy. I know those are a physical impossibility for you, but that doesn’t mean the rest of us need to suffer too. Besides,” she takes another monstrous bite, and her voice comes out muffled. “How do you know it’s bad? You’ve never even tried it.”

    Perhaps she’s right, he thinks, watching bright red gush at the corner of her mouth. But it’s probably not worth the burn.

    Summary

    “You think you can just call up Kaz Brekker and he’ll hop on the next ship to Ravka?" asks Zoya. "He’s gone mad, Nikolai."
    Nikolai can’t argue that Kaz Brekker is the wildest of cards in his deck. But what choice does he have? He needs a master, and Brekker is the most masterful of them all.
    “I know how we can get him on board.”
    Zoya scoffs. “Nina says he’s positively unhinged since Inej Ghafa’s death years ago. Jesper and Wylan fled here after a nasty encounter with the bastard.”
    “I know a way,” he says. Everyone has a weakness, as Kaz would say, and Nikolai knows exactly what Kaz’s is. “Inej Ghafa is alive.”

    Three years after the events of Crooked Kingdom, the Crows have fallen apart. Inej, in order to protect herself, has been faking her death for the past two years. Kaz, overridden with grief, finally snaps and goes mad. Wylan, Jesper, and Nina flee back to Ravka, but when the Wandering Isle closes its harbor and the Fjerdans threaten war, Nikolai needs a crew that can infiltrate Maroch Castle and gather information.
    Can the crows overcome the traumas of their past, the shortcomings of their present, and their fears of the future for one final mission?

    Summary

    Kaz Brekker, as it happens, dies on a Tuesday like any other. Despite his objections, there are mourners and a funeral. (There is also vengeance, but he is not there to see it and likely would not mind the pound of flesh Inej carves away.)

    Kazimir Vredevelt, as it happens, has a scar above his left ear and not a single memory to his name, but he makes the best apple pie this side of Olendaal. (And if he feels sometimes like someone's walking over his grave, he's sure that's just a bit of wind, and bakes another pie to reassure himself that's all it is.)

    On grief, coming back wrong, and surviving a story in which you are the ghost.

    Summary

    Kaz Brekker is the Sun Summoner. He is not a saint. He is a Crow and he is not alone. Ravka has been warned. In this calamity of bossing the Fold, extorting Ravkan royalty and angering the governments of every known nation in the world you will find the following:
    Darklings getting shot!
    Jesper Fahey's school of Durast sharpshooting! (unrelated)
    Certain Second Army Generals desperately wishing for nice, innocent teenage girls to gaslight. Instead dealing with corrupt teenage boys who want their money. Now!
    Ravka's first plaid kefta (absolutely Jesper's fault)
    Kaz Brekker's school of resource management (yes, the First Army do need bulletproof keftas!)
    Regicide (Hello Genya! Inej approves!)
    Sankta Inej, the Holy Wraith!
    Wylan the first Otkazak'sya Fabrikator in history!
    Genuine Sun Saint canes available for the low, low price of...
    Everyone, everywhere wanting Kaz dead. And all at once!
    Revolution. Multiple. Large and Small.
    Jan Van Eck. Yes, really.
    Potentially one unlucky Druskelle having a very strange time in the name of love.

    Summary

    “Mr. Brekker, sit and join us.”
    Inej’s mother is as short and lean as her daughter, her thick black hair streaked with chunks of silver and white, caught in a long braid down her back. Her eyes are dark and wide, and her mouth is steady. When Kaz doesn't immediately join them at the table, she crosses her arms and raises an expectant eyebrow.
    To his right, he hears Inej stifle a snicker into her hand as her eyes flicker between her mother and Kaz.
    Amara Ghafa is not in the least bit intimidated by Kaz Brekker, or his reputation, or his fine dark suits.
    She looks pointedly at the seat next to Inej. “Join us for dinner, Mr. Brekker.”

    kaz meets the inlaws, drinks tea, marries inej twice, and (maybe) makes a joke.

    Summary

    Who is Kaz Brekker?

    Most people would say he's a delinquent, cold-hearted, ruthless, bastard of the barrel.

    Most people don't know that Kaz Brekker is a lonely child forced to grow up in foster care after his parents died, forced to grow up in foster care alone after Jordie died, forced to do whatever it takes to survive, even if that means putting a few people into the hospital.

    Kaz Brekker has been abused again and again and again by the people he's told will protect him, people he's told will love him and treat him kindly and fairly.

    Kaz Rietveld was a nine-year-old boy who had just lost his parents when he moved to live with Jakob Hertzoon, the first of many people who will let him down. Luckily for Kaz Brekker, that kid is dead, he died alongside Jordie that day, and now Kaz Brekker is moving in with the Fahey Family, Mr. Fahey, Jesper, and Nina, people who want to help Kaz get over his past trauma's but ever since Jordie died all Kaz knows is that appearances can be deceiving and he vowed to never trust another foster family ever again.

    Summary

    'I can help you.'

    Four simple words, and yet they would prove to be the most influential ever whispered in the streets of Ketterdam when a desperate young woman decided to take her chances to improve her fate. Those four words would spawn a partnership that would go down in legend amongst the Kerch, that of Dirtyhands and his Wraith. But beneath hardened exteriors forged by Ketterdam herself and walls built up by pasts many would never recover from, two lost souls may find themselves uniting and healing or crumbling into nothing.

    And it all started with those four words.

    Summary

    Kaz is trying to be better about the whole armor thing; he really and truly is. He’s not stupid about it, obviously- he’s still Dirtyhands, Bastard of the Barrel and leader of the Dregs. Just the other night he snapped some bruiser’s elbow so it pointed the wrong direction during a dispute about smuggled jurda on the docks. It’s just that these days sometimes he wants to be, well, more than that.

    Anthony frowned. “I was not aware you’ve met my brother.”

    “I was not aware that such information needed to be declared,” countered Kate.

    “I was onboard the same ship as Miss Sharma and Miss Edwina for the last leg of my return voyage,” answered Colin. “Their traveling companion, Newton, was kind enough to introduce us.”

    Summary

    Lucy honestly never really thought much about the fact that she'd been adopted. Sure, she didn't like the Carlyles much, but for all intents and purposes, they were the family she grew up with, and at least she didn't have to put up with her mum's demands after joining Lockwood and Co. She's fine with her past, because her future is so much brighter than she ever thought it would be.

    However, a case at a country house brings her past to the forefront, forcing her to confront some difficult truths.

    Summary

    Penelope woke up alone. Alone and in her childhood bedroom. For the third day in a row. Her hand slid down to her lower abdomen. The life that was supposed to be fluttering there did not exist yet and neither did the beautiful children that she had already given birth to.

     

    She had three days to accept that something had happened that had sent her back to just before her first season. She wished she had more time, but with having to wake up every day in the wrong house, the wrong bed, without her husband and children—Penelope had to accept that her current present was her new reality.

     

    No matter how often she cried every morning, hours before Rae came to get her ready for the day.

    Summary

    The Problem never happened. Ghosts are not a widespread phenomenon, and the agency system never took root. And yet, newly eighteen-year-old Lucy Carlyle is still plagued by visions and whispers of ghosts, a phenomenon no amount of medical intervention can fix. She's stuck suffering in silence, pretending the ghosts don't exist.

     

    That's probably why she throws caution to the wind and hops a train to London. The city can't be worse than her uncaring mother and cold, distant sisters, can it? She even manages to find a safe place to land with Catherine, the priestess and medium for a church that caters to the ghost-obsessed. There, at least, her affliction doesn't make her feel like so much of a freak.

     

    Or it didn't, until one Anthony J. Lockwood shows up on their doorstep, claiming to be an anthropology student studying religions centered around spiritualism. He takes an odd interest in her, the kind of interest she doesn't know how to interpret. But, like gum on the bottom of her shoe, she can't seem to get rid of him.

They might not be very well known, but the trio of Anthony Lockwood, George Cubbins and Holly Munro have always worked together well, and nothing could ever disrupt the little family they've made. But when they get unexpectedly paired with an independent agent who's unusually good at pushing Lockwood's buttons, they realize things may not stay the same after all.
