Shadow Games

I am reading a book called Shadow Games by Glen Cook. It is a continuation of The Black Company series. It follows a band of mercenaries on there journey south to rediscover they're past. The main character in the story is Croaker, who is the Company's Captain. He is an amiable guy but can a lot of times become overly angry, which makes him easier to relate to. His counterpart is Lady, who's troubled past often makes it hard for her to live today. I really enjoy how Cook worked on creating more than just a couple solid characters or plots, but instead has hundreds of things going on at the same time, which makes the book confusing and therefore interesting to me. For me to find something fun I usually can't just figure out what's going to happen at the end but instead it's a mystery. I also enjoyed how Cook also gave the characters multiple facets into each characters persona. Like how Croaker has a soft side for Lady even though he can be a master military leader. I would suggest this series to anyone who doesn't just want all the info. spoon fed to you like in many other kids books. There is some language so if you don't mind that then it's a great read. :)
