Summary
Stranded far from home, Lae'zel has no choice but to rely on her idiot kin, a warrior from the Astral Plane more interested in books than survival.
Ardak, a washed-up gish helmsman, has no idea how to be a leader, but his new allies need him to become one.
Now that they're both infected, the young githyanki know how little time they have to find a creche and seek salvation. But, this ghaik plot is unlike any they have trained for, and with a traitor aboard Ardak's ship, strange cultists in the wilds, and complicated feelings between them, the path to purification seems to grow longer with each step.

Summary
Hexside is preparing for their annual school play, but it seems like everyone was given the wrong role. If the production goes well, the Emperor's Coven will renew their yearly donation to the arts programs. If it doesn't, that's curtains for the Theater Club.
Raine is exhausted from splitting their efforts between trying to save the Theater Club and moonlighting with the BATs. But, with Scooter's retirement as Head Witch coming up, they have their own reasons for pulling double duty.
The BATs, concerned about their overspent leader, concoct the perfect convoluted plan to cure Raine's stress and lovesickness: shipping, animal costumes, and a little bit of bard mischief.
“Oh, now you remember your lines, Owl Lady. How did you know it was me?”
“How many short bards with green hair are there in Bonesborough?”

Summary
Palamedes--not one to take boredom well--remembers broken architecture, an ancient facility, and a feeling he can't quite place.
It's not at Canaan House, though, it's under the Library. Camilla, age 7, has fallen through the floor.
That’s just how the Library works. If you’re not quick enough to get yourself into trouble by night and finish the forms for it by morning, you’re not going to be a Scholar.
