Then comes the prophecy: The White Rose has been reborn, somewhere, to embody good once more...This is fantasy for all fans of Steven Erikson, Joe Abercrombie and David Gemmell.Contains the first three Black Company novels: THE BLACK COMPANY, SHADOWS LINGER and THE WHITE ROSE.'With the Black Company series, Glen Cook single-handedly changed the face of fantasy - something a lot of people didn't notice, and maybe still don't. He brought the story down to a human level, dispensing with the cliche archetypes of princes, kings and evil sorcerers. Reading his stuff is like reading Vietnam fiction on Peyote.' - Steven Erikson.Glen Cook served in Vietnam. His Black Company books are bestsellers in the US.
