Fantasy's bad guys finally get their due in the first book of this action packed tale of Orc valor and human treachery.
“Look at me. Look at the Orc.
There is fear and hatred in your eyes. To you I am a monster, a skulker in the shadows, a fiend to scare your children with. A creature to be hunted down and slaughtered like a beast in the fields.
It is time you pay heed to the beast. And see the beast in yourself. I have your fear. But I have earned your respect.
Hear my story. Feel the flow of blood and be thankful. Thankful that it was me, not you, who bore the sword. Thankful to the orcs; born to fight, destined to win peace for all.”
This book will change the way you feel about Orcs forever.
