glen cook chronicles of the black company

Īfter I graduated college, I decided that I had gone entirely too long without reading a book. I don’t usually talk about my top tier books as I feel they almost always need no selling, but today let me tell you about the experience that is The Black Company. This knack for describing books helped me fill my friends lives with recommendations they loved, and they in turn encouraged me to start writing this blog. On this search I learned to describe what I felt made books great and experience all the different ways authors could weave an incredible tale. It got me back into reading, grew my appreciation for books in general, and sparked a voracious desire in me to tear through every book I could find in search of that same spark I felt when I read Glen Cook’s masterpiece. The grand reveal is slightly spoiled by the title, the book/series is The Black Company by Glen Cook. Today, on the one year anniversary of the first post on The Quill to Live, I want to tell you about the book that brought fantasy back into my life as an adult and made me appreciate it as more than just entertainment. In fact, many people have two books one when they were younger that got them into reading, and one when they were older that made them appreciate fantasy on a much higher level and start to take it seriously.

Everyone has a book that started them on the magical journey of reading fantasy.
