Fast moving, tongue-in-cheek and full of sorcery and bloodshed, ORCS BAD BLOOD gives a fresh perspective on the endless war between good and evil

The original Orcs trilogy ended with Stryke and his band of Orcs finding the ancestral Orc home hidden in another dimension. ORCS BAD BLOOD will tell the story of their hectic adventures in the other dimensions as they attempt to find peace for their race and escape the ever greedy, savage expansion of mankind.

Collected for the first time, the complete ORCS saga – containing all six novels and one short story – is perfect for fans of fast-paced fantasy action

Stan Nicholls’ Orcs have found an army of followers. These are Orcs who have fought a vicious battle for survival against the encroaching plague of humanity as it has poured across their world and the worlds of others.

Here are the complete tales of Orcish warband the Wolverines, and their continuing struggle to escape the disgusting humans, dwarves and magicians who plague their existence.

They are brutal, bloodthirsty and belligerent. They are slaves, warriors and fighters. They do not die easily, but they will die for the right cause. And if they turn against you, you can be sure of one thing.

They are Orcs. And they will fight. And they will win.

The third volume of Stan Nicholls’ critically acclaimed fantasy

War is drowning Maras Dantia. Stryke and his warband have recovered the five instrumentalities but now they must work out how to use them while there is still a world to save. And in the meantime they are being hunted from every corner and the three sisters are close to forming an unholy alliance that will overturn history.

Full of action, with a pace that never lets up and a tongue firmly placed in cheek, Stan Nicholls’ epic trilogy nevertheless manages to hit home hard about religion, the way we treat the natural world, how we see those who are different from us. Praised by all the reviewers and by writers as diverse as David Gemmell and Tad Williams, it is a major achievement in the genre.

The original Orcs series continues

War is throwing the land of Maras Dantia into chaos: war between the elder races and the invading humans; war between the two sects of humans themselves.

As the armies gather and the magic leaks away from the land, Stryke and his warband of orcs are on the run from everyone; from the orcs that Jennasta has sent after them and from the humans who will kill any orc on sight. Stryke’s quest for the artifacts that will secure the destiny of the orcs and, if they but knew it, all the races old and new in Maras Dantia, has never been more urgent and more difficult.

As the net closes in and his troopers fall one by one to foes that even they never imagined in their worst dreams, time is running out for Stryke, for all orcs and for Maras Dantia.

Where a unique fantasy series began!

A fast moving, action packed epic that for the first time tells the story of fantasy’s traditional enemy, giving orcs their own motives, heroes and destiny.

An epic quest that takes orc warband leader Stryke and his warriors on a journey to secure five artifacts of power with which they hope the can buy their freedom but which actually hold the key to everything and the explanation for the sudden incursion of mankind into the world of the elder races, an incursion that is leeching the magic out of the land of Maras-Dantia.

The international bestselling trilogy now repackaged and complete with new material

Combining the acclaimed trilogy of books, BODYGUARD OF LIGHTNING, LEGION OF THUNDER and WARRIORS OF THE TEMPEST, plus a new short story previously only available in a small press anthology, this is the entire story of Stryke and his band of Orcs.

Fantasy’s bad guys finally get their own say in this fast-moving, action-packed, tongue-in-cheek tale of Orc valour and human treachery.
