© 1999: 1st in the 'Orcs: First Blood' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: '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. Maras-Dantia was our home, and home to the dwarves, elves and all the other old races long before your kind spilled into our lives. Long before you ate our magic and raped the soul of our world. Hear my story. Feel the flow of my 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'. Stan Nicholls has created a new fantasy world full of wonders and on the brink of disaster. 'Bodyguard Of Lightning' is only the beginning of an epic quest that will change the way you look at orcs for ever:- Review(s): "Wall to wall action, undercurrents of dark humour. Gritty, fast paced" - David Gemmell / "Fast moving and freaky. The most fun you're ever likely to have with a warband of orcs. Buy now or beg for mercy later" - Tad Williams:- (original cost unmarked).…

Terms of sale
All books offered for sale are complete and sound (any missing / loose pages or cracked / broken spines will be mentioned in the book description). Our book-seller images are of, not just the listed edition / print, but also of the actual book you will be buying (the cover collages are made from 3 individual scans of each book that are then displayed as a wrap-around image - the books themselves are NOT damaged in any way by this process). Book sizes, where given, are to the nearest ¼". Each book has then been graded according to its condition, taking into account the degree of creasing to the covers and/or spine, presence of scuff marks or tears, any pen marks or inscriptions & any page tanning. We try to be as fair & accurate as possible with the grading of our books, but if you are unhappy with any classification of condition please let us know as soon as possible. If, for any reason at all, you are unhappy with your purchase, we offer a no quibble, money back guarantee within 30 days of purchase. We also welcome any feedback or comments that you may have as we are always trying to maintain our high levels of customer service.
