pickA terrific ending to an extraordinarily unique and entertaining fantasy series. “The Black Company” books have a reputation for bleakness, but I found the tough-love camaraderie among the characters to be the series‘ defining characteristic (along with the humor and unpretentious style). The ending was quite moving and caught me by surprise. Supposedly Glen Cook has one more novel planned…tick tock, Glen. Finish it before World War III please.
pickThe most lovable of lovable rogues return in this penultimate entry in the “Black Company” series. In this one, the remnants of the company are trapped in an occupied city and hunted by a supremely powerful sorceress while their entire leadership is frozen in an impossible-to-reach fortress. The solution? Create almighty chaos and hilariously brazen hijinks for 15 years while planning the rescue. It‘s impossible not to root for these characters.
