With the Black Company series, Glen Cook single-handedly changed the face of fantasy - something a lot of people didn’t notice, and maybe still don’t. He brought the story down to a human level, dispensing with the cliche archetypes of princes, kings and evil sorcerers. Reading his stuff is like reading Vietnam fiction on Peyote’ STEVEN ERIKSON
