Once a mighty kingdom reigned, but now all is chaos. In the vast reaches of the desert, a young heretic escapes certain death and embarks on a mission of madness and glory. He is El Murid - the Disciple - who vows to bring order, prosperity, and righteousness to the desert people of Hammad al Nakir. After four long centuries, El Murid is the savior who is destined to build a new empire from the blood his enemies. But all is not as it seems, and the sinister forces pulling the strings of empire come into the light. Who and what lies behind El Murid's vision of a desert empire? The second book in the A Fortress in Shadow book.

💀 Unrelenting Glen Cook Mercenaries Buddy Read (UGCMBR™) with The Overlord, My One and Only Male Hatchling and My Nefarious Daughter 💀
Actual rating: 3.84875962 stars
➻ Me, upon finishing this book a month ago: “no need to stress about writing this review! You’ll be reading the next book in the series a month from now! You’ve got plenty of time ahead of you and stuff!”
➻ Me, a month later:
Time flies and all that crap.
Sooooo, I started reading October’s Baby last night and figured I should probably maybe perhaps try and write a review for Ain’t No Mercy To Be Had For No Shrimp post haste and stuff. And here we are. Yep. We are indeed. Here. We. Brought together once again by the Super Extra Fluffy World of Glen Cook (SEFWoGC™). And it feels bloody shrimping heartwarming and gleefully joyous and stuff. Sorry, what? I’m shamelessly stalling, you say? I’m dreadfully sorry but have no idea what the fishing barnacle you are talking about. Go home, Comely Decapods Mine, you’re obviously quite very drunk on Laphroaig and stuff.
But anywayyyyyyyyy.
Given that I have about 250,000 highlights and 150+ pages of notes for this book, I thought I’d do the bold and audacious and experimental thing, and paste the first 2000 wonderfully unedited lines of my Evernotes into this Crappier Than Ever Crappy Non Review Thingie (CTECNRT™). Lucky you! So brace your little barnacled selves, for here goes and stuff (the super clever stuff in italics I added along as I did not write this non review the copy/paste thing, FYI):
• My glen cook ratings no make no bloody shrimping sense. I didn't even like this one that much but still rated it xxx stars ← 3.84875962 stars, in case you missed it up there ↑. Because it's Glen Cook and because it’s Glen Cook and because it’s Glen Cook. Also because I might love the way he writes (a little, not too much) + he’s the short cut king + he excels at character spring cleaning (die die die, yay!) + dark is dark is delicious. Also also, comfort book, like a cosy blanket and stuff.
[Add cosy blanket gif] → Please squeeze me (baking powder) while I go hunt for one and stuff.
Tada! Cosy blanket gif FTW! Yes, it's a despicable cute one, I know, but life sucks and stuff so QED and stuff.
• This book, written by any other author, would have been 600 pages long. At least. But this is Glen Cook, aka the Gloriously Ruthless Lord of the Fast Forward Button (GRLotFFB™), so it's only xxx pages ← 268 pages, in case you are interested. 3 months gone in ONE measly sentence, 3 years gone in TWO miserable lines!
[Add POOF gif] → Please squeeze me again (baking powder again) while I go hunt for one and stuff.
Yep, that’s the GRLotFFB™ at work alright!
• Cook excels at character spring cleaning ← yeah yeah yeah, I know I already said that up there ↑ but these are wonderfully unedited notes, remember? So stop complaining and stuff. Besides, it never hurts to rehash and stuff. So there and stuff.
• Thegreat delightful titillating thing about Cook is that he’s an equal opportunity kind of guy who doesn't differentiate between major or minor characters. When you die, you die. Death is anonymous and abrupt (and a little final, too), and doesn't make allowances for egocentric BS. No flourish, no glory, just scrumptiously beautiful deathly death. YUM.
• Ch. 7/8: rock and hard place (I don’t remember, so don’t ask), verbal pyrotechnics, fishes (no clue what this was about, but pretty sure it was awesome since subaquatic individuals were involved), slightly hilarious conversations between Haroun and Mocker, “odd-shaped little intrigues” + Machiavellian plans ← all of this calls for a little dance, methinks. Especially that thing about fishes.
• Ch. 9: El Murid's spoiler spoiler spoiler (I could tell you what this is about but it would kinda sorta, um, you know, spoil things for you and stuff. You are most welcome and stuff) + trading murders and undercover knife work, with a generous helping of evil laughs and wicked grins, now we're talking! + Super Extra Cunning Secret Alliances (SECSA) for the win!
• Ch. 13: bloody treachery, yay! Hypnotiiiiize = trust in me song = kaa gif → Please squeeze me again again (baking powder again again) while I go hunt for one and stuff.
♫ Trust in me ♫ and ♫ Trust in Me ♫
Thus to the end of the first 2000 wonderfully unedited lines of my Evernotes we regrettably come, and go back to your boring daily activities you may. Woo bloody shrimping hoo and stuff!
➽ Nefarious Last Words (NLW™): write the review for the next book in this series in less than a month I most assuredly will. Cross my black, withered heart and hope to die an excruciatingly excruciating death and stuff.

After my lukewarm reaction to the previous book, The Fire in His Hands, this one really came as a pleasant surprise. For whatever reason, I just enjoyed it a lot more. Perhaps it’s because the pieces that were slowly moved into place in that earlier volume were finally set into action here, as we witness the events of the El Murid Wars. Perhaps it’s because a certain character, who did not appear in the last book shows up here in all their glory. Who knows? Regardless of the reason, this was a solid military fantasy novel with some great characters and exciting scenes.
My only real complaint is that some sections felt rushed and distant; it would have been nice to have some more detail in those scenes. I understand sparse writing is a hallmark of Glen Cook’s style, but I think it worked better in The Black Company, since that series was in first-person POV (and could be chalked up to the narrator only focusing on details which are important to them, and skipping over the rest). But this is a relatively minor complaint, and I still enjoyed the book despite this.
This book also made me a fan of Haroun, who first appeared in A Shadow of All Night Falling, and who will hopefully be in the subsequent volumes of the series.

A little heavy on the warfare for me (yeah, yeah, it's Glen Cook), but as always full of fascinating characters, lots of backstabbing, and plenty of twists and unusual uses of magic. Its continuation of El Murid's story is also surprisingly heartbreaking. Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be prophets. And if you meet an angel, be highly suspicious of its motives.

This is the second prequel novel of Cook's Dread Empire series. Unlike The Fire in His Hands (https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...), this one feels like a stand-alone novel and not just setting the stage for A Shadow of Night's Falling (the first book of the Dread Empire trilogy). Like the rest of the series, this one is military-oriented fantasy (even though there is magic - and some earth-shattering magic at that - the main action is set around warfare - everything from small skirmishes and running fights to huge set battles and sieges). Like And, as always, there's a good bit of politics and intrigue. This book introduces the Mocker, one of the main characters of the series. 4 stars.

With Mercy Toward None (Dread Empire #5) - Glen Cook | E começa uma GUERRA SANTA no mundo BRUTAL da saga DREAD EMPIRE! | NITROLEITURAS #fantasia #fantasiasombria #horror
A parte final da Duologia que narra a saga de El Murid, o Discípulo, um messias poderoso do passado do mundo de Dread Empire, a saga de fantasia sombria e brutal do criador da Companhia Negra e pioneiro da fantasia militarista e brutal, o mestre Glen Cook!
With Mercy Toward None (Dread Empire #5) - Glen Cook | 1985, 336 páginas, Baen Books | NITROLEITURAS | Lido de 31.01.18 a 04.02.18
SINOPSE
As guerras santas começaram, e sua família foi morta por bandidos. Ele foi abandonado para morrer no deserto, mas ele sobreviveu com a ajuda de seu Deus e de seu Anjo Destruidor, e se tornou El Murid, o Discípulo.
Liderando milhões de guerreiros fanático, ele entra em confronto com poderoso Príncipe Feiticeiro Haroun ben Yousif. E sua guerra irá mergulhar o deserto em magia e sangue!
RESENHA
A conclusão da saga de El Murid segue a evolução da visão criativa de Glen Cook, que, nesse quinto volume da série Dread Empire, já demonstra mais domínio na mistura de ficção histórica, fantasia sombria, e brutalidade realista que o tornou um pioneiro no gênero tornado famoso com George R.R. Martin entre outros.
Como nos demais livros da saga, a prosa é bem enxuta, a caracterização dos protagonistas bem feita para o estilo da narrativa, e as batalhas são fantásticas.
A cada livro, apesar de Cook diminuir o uso de resumos de narrativa e focar mais em cenas dramáticas, os saltos narrativos vertiginosos continuam presentes!
Assim, esteja preparado para ver meses se passando em questão de algumas linhas, e de narrativas se desenvolverem de maneira absolutamente imprevisível!
Nesse volume finalmente compreendemos os motivos do feiticeiro Haroun, e sobre o passado de vários personagens dos volumes 1 a 3 da saga Dread Empire.
E, é claro, finalmente conhecemos os eventos das famosas Guerras de El Murid, que foi tanto referenciado nos volumes anteriores.
A trama é cheia de reviravoltas e bem imprevisível.
A descrição da guerra é bem realista e mostra as dificuldades dos dois lados do conflito, seja com traidores, problemas de gerenciamento de exércitos enormes, e muitos outros detalhes interessantes.
Recomendo para os fãs do Cook, como os demais livros da saga Dread Empire.
Se você não quiser ler todos os 8 volumes, recomendo os volumes 4 e 5, pois contam uma história completa e servem como prequência dos três primeiros!

The Dread Empire series was written in a very different style than the Black Company books and at first I wasn't in to it as much. I never did like it quite as much as the Black Company series but I came to enjoy it a lot and consider it a very strong fantasy series.

Mercy Towards None is the second part of the prequel duology in Glen Cook's Dread Empire series. It gets off to a cracking start, and sets up an epic battle between El Murid the Disciple and Haroun bin Yousef but never quite pays that off to my satisfaction.
There's plenty of good stuff here for sure, and a certain character I didn't expect to see was an unexpected delight, but this felt less essential than the previous book.
Mind you, this seems to be a minority opinion so take it for what it's worth. Three more books to go in the series as The Cookening continues...

Sorry Glen Cook, this book wasn't worthy of you. I felt this book's plotline was pretty shallow, the characters were all doing things they wouldn't normally do. Maybe he was trying to add some depth to some of the characters but it fell pretty flat. Also, there were at least two scenes in the novel that were so similar to other scenes that it almost felt like he copy/pasted it.
I'm going to finish the series, but this book didn't follow the upward quality trend that each novel before it seemed to follow.
I'm a big fan of Varthlokkur and he was such a wuss in this book too. I guess I don't like seeing weakness in Bragi either.
