Product Description

She is the last hope of good in the war against the evil sorceress known as the Lady. From a secret base on the Plains of Fear, where even the Lady hesitates to go, the Black Company, once in service to the Lady, now fights to bring victory to the White Rose. But now an even greater evil threatens the world. All the great battles that have gone before will seem a skirmishes when the Dominator rises from the grave.

5.0étoiles sur 5 The pinnacle of a masterpiece trilogy..., Oct. 4 2003
I just don't find many books that purely entertain me like this very often. Here again, Cook mixes in several plotlines separated in time all culminating in one of the best "show-downs" I've ever read. I just can't say enough good things about this book. The ending was totally unexpected and Cook drove me insane with curiosity about: the Lady's real name, what Bomans was looking for and what happened, who Corbie was, which Taken were loyal to the Lady, who would ultimately win in the end. One is never quite sure who's playing who until the very end. This is the capstone to one of the best trilogies in any genre.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Final battle in the north, Sep 11 2003
Par hrladyship (Las Cruces, NM United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
The White Rose, the third in Glen Cook's Black Company series, completes this mercenary army's adventures in the north country. It is as different from the first two as they are different from each other. The men grow older, their numbers, dwindle, yet they are feared by their enemies.

All of the threads come together, but not altogether cleanly. The differences between good and evil are not always clear. The beginning of the story is disjointed and not nearly as action-oriented as the first two. No one is what he -- or she -- seems to be. Yet at the end, the story is satisfying enough.

Cook's gritty prose style changes slightly from one book to the next. Characterization is not as strong as in the previous books. Yet there is enough continuity to keep one reading. And he always has a few surprises. This is a good, fast read. Be sure to read the books 1 and 2 first.

4.0étoiles sur 5 White Rose, Mai 26 2003
Par Un client
There are many good things about this series. Cook writes in a colloquial, spare style which often achieves a weird elegance. He asks the reader to trust him that information and characterization will be shown rather than told, and he follows through. (Though I still want to know more about the psychology of the Taken.) Though the plot and setting are pretty much those of standard heroic fantasy, the world-weary tone and the fuzzy morality add a new feel.

This is the climactic and the most surreal and magical of the first trilogy, and at times it got a bit too out there for me. I wanted more concrete tactical detail--the Black Company is a mercenary unit but one never gets much sense of how warfare really works in this society. However, Croaker's 1st POV voice is engaging, and most of the characterization overall is strong.
