'With the Black Company series Glen Cook single-handedly changed the face of fantasy... He brought the story down to a human level, dispensing with the cliché archetypes of princes, kings, and evil sorcerers.'

Steven Erikson, author of Malazan Book of the Fallen

'Over the past 25 years, Cook has carved out a place for himself among the preeminent fantasy writers of his generation… His work is real, complex, and honest.'

Jeff VanderMeer, author of Annihilation

'Glen writes a mean book.'

Jim Butcher, author of The Dresden Files

'An all-time classic... a book that has left its mark [on] the entire genre.'
