    Summary

    No serious hockey fan or sports commentator worth their salt would have considered record-breaking Boston superstar Ilya Rozanov to be Shane Hollander’s rival exactly, but sleeping with a man who had a specific offense-related vendetta against him and a wrist shot like a jet engine to back it up was probably ill-advised just the same.

    Or, Shane is a goalie. Ilya can’t score.

    Summary

    Bucky’s dad always says what they do is important.

    “We give people the dignity they deserved in life,” he says, seriously.

    Uncle Danny laughs at that. “Jimmy-kid,” he says, “your old man has got some real trumped up notions of what it is we do. Death ain’t beautiful. We just help create the illusion that it can be.”

    Summary

    All through the three kingdoms they tell the tale the same. There was once a lord of ancient lineage and crest-fallen estate who married a lady of surpassing worth and modest dowry, who bore to him three daughters and a son. The eldest daughter was tall and proud, with hair black as a raven’s wing, skin pale as alabaster and lips like rowan-berries. The second had brown hair soft as a thrush’s back, and she had a voice sweet enough to sing the birds out of the trees. But the youngest daughter — ah, her hair shone like the brightest of chestnuts, her eyes were bluer than a kingfisher’s crown and she laughed, played and sang all day long. And those who knew her said that, poor as her fortune was, some day a prince would come riding by, and carry her off to live beside him in his palace and become the mother of kings.

    For every puissant prince must be in want of a wife.

    Summary

    As I waited for sleep, my thought strayed to the methods used by the Nazhmorhathveras to hunt the sheleian that ranged on the steppes. No barbarian would have been foolish enough to try to take on a flock; though a sheleis resembled little more than a large stack of poorly cared-for carpets, the adults of a pack would vigorously defend their young. Thick of hide, dense of fur, tusked, and ferocious—the Nazhmorhathveras stalked the steppes in search of a sheleis that had gotten itself separated from the pack. A lone sheleis would flee, in the face of a hunter’s spear, and the hunter would pursue. Not at the desperate pace set by the sheleis; the beast could leave his sight, and still he would track it, at a steady and persistent pace. It might take hours, even a day or more, but eventually the sheleis would collapse from exhaustion, and the hunter would be ready when it did.

    Summary

    She had let go of everything else; hope of a retrieval, hope of an apology, hope of seeing her sisters or her son again. It would be enough to know. She did not have to do anything with the knowledge. Ulis would understand. Surely he would.
    "To the best of your knowledge, Othala— is the Archduke Maia alive and safe?”
    Thara Celehar stared at her for a very long moment, his grip on her trembling fingers very firm. Then he said;
    “Sister— he is.”

    In a Thu-Tetar nunnery, the Dach'othalo asks a Sister of Ulis: Did you enter this place as Chenelo Drazharan?

    Summary

    Chilchuck erupted from his bedroll in one smooth movement that carried through his body into his hand, almost as if he’d been laying awake the whole time and plotting exactly how he was going to do it; and before Palinode understood anything, he had bounced a boot very hard off her human’s head.

    Summary

    No one in their right mind would ever seriously try to woo Lin Ronghu, the Emperor's infamously ruthless (if unofficial) spymaster.

    Not that that's stopped the local legend, a (self-described) beautiful detective with peerless martial arts. His crush is a major inconvenience - at least until there's a murder that puts Lin Ronghu's most hated political nemesis straight in the frame. Since Lin Ronghu can't believe that anyone would be that stupid, he decides that maybe having a private detective around might be good for something after all...

    Summary

    When Varenechibel IV and his three eldest sons are killed in an airship crash, the eyes of the court turn to the only surviving heir: the nine-year-old Maia Drazhar. Facing down the near-hopeless precedent of child emperors, however, is not something he will have to do alone.

    Summary

    Neither hide nor hair of the Emperor's youngest son had been seen in the seven years before Varenechibal IV's death, when the boy had abruptly disappeared from the sad estate to which his father had relegated him. Dead or banished, Maia Drazhar was not present to take the throne. So instead the Ethuveraz had a fourteen-year-old emperor whose thin neck could not support the full weight of the Dachen Mura, his viper's nest of increasingly powerful courtiers, and his scowling, unpleasant regents.

    *

    Thara Celehar travels to Amalo to witness for the late Emperor, on Idra Drazhar's petition. But once there, he is befriended by a kind, soft-spoken young man with half-goblin dark grey skin, silver Drazhar eyes, a fake name from a wonder-tale, and strange, radical philosophies.

    Seven years earlier, eleven-year-old Maia Drazhar is kidnapped from Edonomee by men who believe they can change the world - and who, for the first time in his life, are kind to him.

    A cruel Owl sharpens his Talons, and holds Gotham by the throat, but the rule of fear can never be complete, so long as there are still those who laugh at the dark.

    And this, o my best-beloved, is why we have clowns.
