The Silver Spike

From international bestseller Glen Cook comes the fourth book in the Chronicles of The Black Company — the series that forever changed the face of fantasy.

The Dominator is dead — nearly. What remains of him, a sliver of pure malice, has been hammered into a silver spike and driven into a sacred tree no sane soul would dare disturb.

Enter a crew of petty thieves. In greed and folly they pry the spike free and unleash a catastrophe the world is unprepared to face.

Reborn and ravenous for vengeance, the Dominator sweeps across the land in a scorched-earth campaign, leaving gutted cities in his wake.

The White Rose must rally every ally she can — and withstand the corrupting pull of the Dominator’s lingering essence — before his return consumes the world.
