About this ebook

From Glen Cook, the godfather of Grimdark, comes Chronicles of the Black Company, an omnibus comprising of The Black Company, Shadows Linger, and The White Rose—the first omnibus volume of the bestselling fantasy series, with millions of copies in print.

Darkness wars with darkness as the hard-bitten men of the Black Company take their pay and do what they must. They bury their doubts with their dead.

Then comes the prophecy: The White Rose has been reborn, somewhere, to embody good once more...

“With the Black Company series Glen Cook single-handedly changed the face of fantasy.”—New York Times bestselling author Steven Erikson

Its starts slow and not so amazing, not compared to the malazan series. However, by the second book in this 3 book collection you are hooked. The third ends on an amazing scene and begs you to find more.

Didn't really ever paint a picture for me. Felt descriptions were broad and all proper names were one syllable. Didnt enjoy his style of writing.

Glen Cook doesn't give you every swing of the sword, but that takes nothing away from this story of brothers in arms. The characters are the story here, not the fighting. This story is as much advanced by the lulls in action as it the parts wherein the Black Company fights for it's very existence. Glen Cook writes in a manner that would make any veteran nostalgic for his unit of old.
