The Black Company

From Glen Cook, the godfather of Grimdark, comes the first book in the Chronicles of The Black Company--an epic fantasy series, with millions of copies in print--following a group of hard-bitten mercenaries waging war on behalf of The Lady, who may very be the manifestation of evil itself. Some feel the Lady, newly risen from centuries in thrall, stands between humankind and evil. Some feel she is evil itself. The hardbitten men of the Black Company take their pay and do what they must, burying their doubts with their dead. Until the prophesy: The White Rose has been reborn, somewhere, to embody good once more. There must be a way for the Black Company to find her...
