While we all wait for the next Black Company book, "Water Sleeps", to come out in early march, you can enjoy a couple of pages now!
Don't fear, this is not a spoiler of any sort, it contains only the first couple pages from the book.
My thanks to Gary for bringing this to my attention.

Here is the cover for the long awaited "Water Sleeps".
Also here is the Kirkus rewiew:
"This outing for the Black Company-either the eighth or the ninth, depending on how you
count-completes the Glittering Stone trilogy (She is the Darkness, 1997; Bleak Seasons, 1996). Most
of the usual crew return: Goblin, One-Eye, the female warrior Sleepy (she's also the new
annalist/narrator), the witch Ky Sahra, 14-year-old Tobo (son of former annalist Murgen), and the
Company's pilgrim/swordmaster allies, the Nyueng Bao. Murgen, Sahra's husband, is now confined
by supernatural means beneath the Glittering Plain, along with the Captain and others, but his spirit's
free to roam and spy for the Company. So, how can the Company free their companions from
confinement while avoiding destruction by the various gods, goddesses, demons, wizards, etc., who
are their adversaries?"
Once again, thanks to FaDe for hunting this info down.

Here is an unconfirmed, but cool, piece of news...
According to a note from Glen Cook which came with some magazines ordered from him, the 4th Glittering Stone title is "Soldiers Live (And Wonder Why)" or at least that is the working title.
Special thanks to Steve for sending this one over.

Well TOR finnally gave us some info about the next Black Company book...
The next book will be called Water Sleeps ("water sleeps, but your enemies don't"), and should be out in early 1999. It will
be the third book of the "Glittering Stone" sequence -- but , contrary to earlier reports -- is not the last book in that sequence.
There will be a fourth book. We don't yet know its title, and we don't know whether that will be the end of the Black
Company.
Check it out for yourself at Glen Cook's TOR books FAQ
And a special thanks to FaDe for pointing this info out.
