The Many Deaths of the Black Company (Chronicles of The Black Company);

“Let me tell you who I am, on the chance that these scribblings do survive. . . .“I am Murgen, Standardbearer of the Black Company, though I bear the shame of having lost that standard in battle. I am keeping these Annals because Croaker is dead, One–Eye won’t, and hardly anyone else can read or write. I will be your guide for however long it takes the Shadowlanders to force our present predicament to its inevitable end. . . .”This omnibus volume comprises the novels Water Sleeps and Soldiers Live.
