fantasy novels.

yes. correct approach.

is The Black Company a fun read at all? I see mookieproof described it as “military porn” upthread and I think I could be down for some of that in a dark fantasy setting.

Someone here liked it. I read a bit of the first book and thought it was okay, but maybe it wasn’t quite my thing.

I tried it, having heard people rave about it, but it's a bit try-hard. Not terrible writing, but frequently unpleasant and with deus ex machina magic stuff that can do whatever the plot demands at the time. Didn't bother past the end of book 1.

ie it was mostly the opposite of fun

i would send someone to joe abercrombie instead, easier read if nothing else
