For those of you unaware, Grimdark refers to a sub-genre of speculative fiction that is particularly realistic or that contains an anti-hero. I find that military fantasy books often end up in this sub-genre, and these novels hold a special place in my heart. Each of the links above will take you to the Goodreads page for the first novel in each series. Enjoy!
