Synopsis
The brothers Balbok and Rammar have achieved a great deal as orcs, yet they have not finished with their past, above all their very first assignment, which seemed impossible. The novel goes back to their youth, when they were not yet the celebrated heroes of legend. The job should have been simple, but their clumsiness turns it into an adventure that shakes the whole world. The fifth Orks book is a prequel that shows how the two brothers started out and why they became the figures later stories remember.
