Has anyone ever read the Black Company series by Glen Cook?
I found it to be quite the good read.

Thanks for reading this. Have a good one.

Sincerely,
Conrad

I have - some of the later books are bloody hard [and expensive!] to get hold of.
I thought some of it was ace but later on it was getting rather wearisome [esp during the prolonged wars down south].
Good ending though!

they are out in Omnibus editions now available on Amazon. That is how I read them. Couldn't be bothered to hunt them down especially from Japan.

yeah I bought the first as a standalone; enjoyed it then bought a couple of the omnibuses but books 8/9 (I think) weren't in omnibuses when I was reading them and IIRC for a while the only copy of book 9 I saw was in the US for $200!!!

200 for a book is a bit insane I agree.
The 4 Omnibus editions I have contain all the books.
