A Goodreads user asked this question about The Black Company (The Chronicles of the Black Company, #1):
Is this book an example of fantasy for adults? I have been trying to find more fantasy after reading all the Robin Hobb and George R R Martin available, moved on to stuff like Eddings/ Feist/ Jordan and it is rubbish in comparison. On the search for some quality fantasy that has actual characters and a decent plot, help would be much appreciated :)
Lee Franklin The Black Company is an example of military fantasy. It tells the story in an "In the trenches" fashion of a very dark war, and in the way of soldiers…moreThe Black Company is an example of military fantasy. It tells the story in an "In the trenches" fashion of a very dark war, and in the way of soldiers. To a soldier war is war, and surviving is one more day of war. I've never read anything quite like this series. And yes, it is for adults.(less)
