I picked up the Crossroads book recently and have finished most of it (only the Gremlins entries are still waiting). For me, my favorites were by far The Portrait (Lucius), The Moonlight Gallery (Dreamer), The Magistrate of Stranglehold (Jack Daw) and Falling to Fly (Kaeris). The story about Jack Daw did a great job to transport the theme of this master and made me really interested in picking him up as my next master, once his box will be released. Likewise, it was really interesting to read something about Kaeris` past instead of her current actions in Malifaux.
The story about Kirai & Molly (Last Call at the Gray Lord) was also quite good, but personally, I liked the stories, mentioned above, a bit more.
