Synopsis

The Black Company's chronicle continues as the mercenary band's history is told across decades, following the same core members as they survive shifting alliances, betrayal, and the slow toll of war. Croaker's narration weaves together the lives of Lady, Murgen, and the others, whose fates are shaped as much by their own choices as by the men and women who hire them. Told in the same gritty, morally ambiguous style as the earlier novels, this installment deepens the scope of the series' epic and dark fantasy world.
