The Books Of The South by Glen Cook

Tales of the Black Company

An omnibus of linked dark-fantasy tales following the battered remnants of a mercenary brotherhood marching south in search of their lost origins, only to be drawn into a savage struggle against the Shadowmasters and the politics of Taglios and Dejagore; shifting first-person chronicles and a fallen sorceress’s perspective frame desperate campaigns, betrayals, and uneasy alliances, while a companion narrative pursues a stolen spike that imprisons an ancient tyrant, luring rogues and old comrades into a deadly race that could unleash ruin across the land.
