Chronicles of the Black Company by Glen Cook

Chronicles of the Black Company by Glen Cook

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.

This omnibus edition comprises The Black Company, Shadows Linger, and The White Rose--the first three novels in Glen Cook's bestselling fantasy series.

Born in 1944, Glen Cook grew up in northern California, served in the U.S. Navy, attended the University of Missouri, and was one of the earliest graduates of the well-known Clarion workshop SF writers.
