i for one enjoy the newer black company covers. over the top 40k metal fantasy is a nice alternative to the comfy old school almost cartoonist covers

Does it improve? Just finished the sixth book.

It's pretty much the most recommended "Military fantasy" whenever I see someone asking for something like that..

Despite this is the battles are incredibly lacking in tactics and they feel poorly written.

I also dislike immensely how nonchalantly battles/main character deaths are handled. We basically had a guy built up for 3 books only to die in the most lackluster fight I have ever read.

I do like the main characters though. Well book six was based on Darling/Raven which I am not a fan off but the other side story of Smeds/Fish kept me going, they were incredibly ballsy.

So I just finished reading Books of the North from the Black Company series and I wonder is Books of the South worth a read as well?
