I am going to look these up again and read them in order. (  ) pathaque | Oct 19, 2009 |  No tv in the world that these guys inhabit. If there was, and they had seen a few B horror movies, they would never, ever, ever have contemplated what they did in a sheer fit of idiocy. The rest of the book is the bad things that happen to them afterwards. Mostly obvious to us, and somewhat amusing. Plus some Darling and her entourage, and what happens to them. http://notfreesf.blogspot.com/2006/11... (  ) maketest | Aug 26, 2009 | I've listed this as #3B since it overlaps in time with the previous books, mostly with The White Rose. It tells the stories of characters who have walked out of the main story line. It's well-written, perhaps better than the first three, but does suffer a bit from the fact that you know much of what has happened. (  ) TadAD | May 14, 2008 | I loved the first Black Company book. I found the second and third books to be entertaining, but not really in the same class. I read this book fourth, and found it to be hardly recognizable as the work of the same author. The characters are unsympathetic and one-dimensional, and the plot meanders without rhyme or reason. The climax is a yawner and the denouement is neither believable nor satisfying. If you're looking for more of the gritty, imaginative writing of the original, skip this one. ( ) clong | Dec 28, 2007 | No tv in the world that these guys inhabit.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0812502205, Mass Market Paperback)...embedded in the trunk of the scion of the godtree, it contains the essence of the maddest of the Ten Who Were Taken...The Dominator. Defeated by the Lady and cast from this world, all that was left of him was a foul trace of lingering evil. But the graveyard that was once the Barrowland contains more secrets than dead. All who would possess the power of the Dominator are drawn to the spike. A foolhardy band of thieves is the first to reach it, and a rapacious and malign spirit is unleashed on an unwary world. The forces gather, sides are drawn, and mortal men can only die as the Dark Lords battle for domination. (retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:05 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
