    Summary

    Kaz Rietveld was placed into foster care with his brother Jordie at age nine, but the family he was given to was a farce. After suffering Jordie’s death and his imprisonment and depraved abuse for seven years, he is rescued and placed into the Fahey home at the request of his new social worker Nadia. Terrified of who he views as his new captors and abusers, Kaz must learn what it’s like to live life without danger around every corner while Colm navigates how best to help his poor charge who has been to Hell and back. At the same time, the Crows help Kaz while going through their own struggles together as they all, Colm included, find joy and fulfillment in their lives together.

    Summary

    Kaz Rietveld, a talented Swiss biathlete, is forced to change teams at the start of what should have been his breakthrough season. He is angry and unwilling to cooperate with anyone, but eventually finds friends and something else entirely.

    Summary for chapters 12-25:
    Lukas Rietveld enters his third season with the French team. A lot has changed since his involuntary transfer and Kaz and those closest to him face new challenges, including the Winter Olympics.

     

    No need to know biathlon well (or at all), I'll stick to the basics and not overcomplicate it.

    Summary

    Ketterdam is the source of the greatest diseases that destroyed Inej Ghafa's and Kaz Brekker's lives, but it is also where they found miracles within each other.

    Set post Crooked Kingdom and eventually far beyond Rule of Wolves, Inej and Kaz are healing together and learning how to be with one another both emotionally and physically. Their armor is slowly dropping away as they learn to trust and love one another as they deserve.

    Meanwhile, the disease of slavery still festers throughout Ketterdam and the sea beyond. Inej, captain of the Wraith, and Kaz, leader of the increasingly powerful Dregs, must fight to uncover a growing nefarious and dangerous threat crafted from rival gangs, despicable merchers, and a past that aims to destroy them in the name of profit and vengeance.

    Summary

    UPDATE made 5/30/2024:
    Since I originally made the promise of Mission Impossible Crow Heists (see original summary below) and then began with Kaz's birth :D, I felt I should update with how this story is shaping itself:
    Part I: The Farm (Chpts 1-4)
    Part II: New to Ketterdam (Chpts 5-11)
    Part III: In Storage (Chpts 12-23)
    Part IV: Dregs/Bunker/Spy v Spy (Chpts 24-current)

    Future:
    Part V: Vengeance
    Part VI: Mission Impossible Crow Heists

    Original Summary:
    A modern AU wherein Kaz, son of a paramilitary ghost, begins his life as a prepper on a farm near the town of Lij. When his father’s enemies find them, he moves on to the streets of Ketterdam where he learns the specialized skills of surviving in the Barrel. Many stories are included of those intense early years in the Barrel, but eventually Kaz is recruited as a field operative and computer hacker for a secret agency, unfettered by government connections, that handles dangerous, high-stakes missions.

    Along the way, Kaz meets and recruits each of our beloved Crows to a team rivaling any put together by Ethan Hunt of the Mission Impossible movie series!

    Summary

    Modern AU where Kaz is Kirigan’s son and a Shadow Summoner, but - when Kirigan was presumed dead in the Fold - he was adopted by Colm and Jesper. Almost all of his backstory is still the same, but instead of his father dying in a plow accident, it was just Kirigan disappearing and remaking his new identity, but Jordie and Kaz were too young to know he would come back, so he had to find them in Ketterdam, but only found one of them, who was horribly traumatized by the death of the other and had already managed to adopt a gang as his own siblings and “children.” This is basically just Kaz having two dads, superpowers that make everyone hate him, and a whole lot of trauma. Starts as word reaches Ketterdam that the Darkling is confirmed to be alive, instead of dying in the Fold. Oh, and then Nikolai shows up and asks Kaz for a favor that will set them all on a collision course with the Darkling.

    Also, Kaz is a Captain of the Second Army and – even though he severed all ties when he escaped to Ketterdam – a lot of the Grisha still refer to him as Captain Brekker and like him a lot better than Kirigan.

    Summary

    Podfic of i'm on my way to believing by sam_writes_fics. Author's original summary:

    Inej pulled back just far enough to see his face, keeping her arms wrapped around him. “Are you going to greet me like this every time I return to Ketterdam?”

    “Are you going to be gone for this long every time you leave?”

    She laughed. A question answered with a question—some things never changed.

    Summary

    Whispers ran over the room. Excitement was palpable. Radmakker droned on.

    “Ladies and gentlemen, Kaz Brekker stands before you today on charges of slanderous misconduct in the sight of Ghezen. He is accused of sabotage, disrupting business practice, and of aiding and abetting piracy on behalf of the Wraith.”

    Kaz has gotten away with things in the past, but even he can't escape this time. The clock is ticking and a reckoning comes.

    Summary

    Inej looked down at herself. The shirt hung down to her knees. The sleeves were entirely too baggy and long on her, her hands were gone under the white pleated fabric of the cuffs. She stood there, completely dwarfed by the shirt.
    But…it smelled like Kaz. She wanted to stay in it for that reason, and that reason alone.

     

    Or,

    Inej gets back to Ketterdam to see Kaz. He’s not at the Slat right now, so she decides to wait for him to get back. In the meantime, she might take a nap.

    Summary

    It’s been brought to my attention that there’s some demand for a Crows reunion show in New York this holiday season. I know it’s a bit last minute, but it has the potential to be very lucrative. If the tickets and merch sell the way we are anticipating, each of you could be minting a pretty penny.

    Let me know if you have interest in participating.

    Your long-suffering former manager who would like to return to making gobs of cash together,

    Anika

    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?
