Summary
Nothing in the world was worse than a magic insurance inspector. This was because they received twice the salary as an ordinary insurance inspector for half the caseload. In Ari’s case, it was also because he had the cubicle across from Basil’s, he always had an almond croissant from the cafe down the street, and he chewed very loudly and left little flakes of puff pastry and shaved almonds scattered across the floor.
A pair of insurance inspectors investigate a magical fire.

Summary
Schuyler Jiang is a minor right-wing political commentator with a blog mostly dedicated to court and Senate coverage. Through some mysterious means (probably nepotism), they scored an invite to the Gale-Stirling wedding, also known as the event of the century.
Late last night, they posted an incoherent blog post, talking about… apparently, how smoking hot Senator Consort January Stirling is. Is it a strategy? An attempt to appear more moderate or more relatable to a younger audience?
Probably not. Since they’ve just effectively destroyed their own credibility among the right-wing Senate watchers that formed their original audience, wise money is currently on the theory that they just got super drunk.
A minor Tharsese conservative political commentator gets really drunk and starts posting about how hot January Stirling is. The resulting fallout changes their life forever.

Summary
This is a story about how love prevented the end of the world. There’s nothing special about that, of course. It happens all the time.
Rua is a merchant caravan's guide who is probably also a demon who can smell lies, but he has a job so he doesn't care about that right now. Marhi is an abbot tasked with providing hospitality to travellers and keeping the restless dead out of consecrated ground. Rua is looking forward to a relatively warm and restful midwinter stay in the abbey... until one of the pilgrims turns up dead.

Summary
Just the week before, she had caused a minor motorcar accident on Kingsway as a direct consequence of a snapped heel and an inside-out umbrella. I am fond of the girl, In my way, but she is best kept constrained with a supply of gin and tonic and the year's Finance Act.
