Stealing? Plotting? Fighting? Fairly normal for Key. Questing with princes, fighting eternal evil, and stirring an ancient magic that could destroy the world? Not so much... While the rich men rest on piles of gold and their well-to-do wives dance around into pretty lace dresses, those who aren't nearly as fortunate are left to the streets. Key, always fascinated with stories of honorable heroes she lived for as a child, tries to help out as many as these people as she can. Nonetheless, she is a thief, an a notorious one at that. No one knows her real name, as she goes by many, but there's one unanimous nickname that has stuck with her. Lady Thief. She's not your typical lady. She's not elegant, charming, endearing, patient, or even extremely friendly. One day our Lady Thief has an unfortunate run in with some royalty, and, somehow, tangled in a web of lies, she's managed to get herself sucked into following King Cavalierre's two sons in a political campaign, so they can win the trust of their people. Somewhere along the way, she ends up on a quest that could stir up an ancient magic, which threatens to rip the new world- and her heart- apart at the seams. Things have just gotten complicated for our Lady Thief.

Being a werewolf isn't all about howling at the moon and running carelessly through boundless fields feeling the wind in your fur. For Michael Andrews, a Canadian living in Manhattan and afflicted with lycanthropy, there are odd side effects to being a werewolf in the middle of a bustling metropolis. Such as waking up naked in Battery Park with absolutely no memory of the night before as a wolf and trying to figure out why there is a bullet hole in his leg. Just another day in the life of a man living with the odd side affect of his werewolf affliction.

A dead professor stalks the campus, seeking revenge on those who dare taint the sacred nature of a beloved classic play. Renowned Shakespearean scholar Dr. Marshall Emerson whose specialty was the bard’s The Tempest could never be spotted walking the grounds of McMaster University without the precious 1861 folio edition of Shakespeare’s works clutched in his hands. Decades after his death, when McMaster University library and bookstore staff begin producing replica versions of the text on a newly acquired Espresso Book Machine, Emerson, who was also known as Professor Prospero, returns, intent to put a stop to this “desecration” of his precious text. This short story of approximately 6000 words originally appeared in the book CAMPUS CHILLS (2009) and was written by McMaster Graduate Kimberly Foottit and Mark Leslie, whose alter ego ran the Espresso Book Machine at the McMaster bookstore from 2008 until 2011.
