Summary
Bring on the orcs....
Jackal is proud to be a Grey Bastard, member of a sworn brotherhood of half-orcs. Unloved and unwanted in civilized society, the Bastards eke out a hard life in the desolate no-man's-land called the Lots, protecting frail and noble human civilisation from invading bands of vicious full-blooded orcs.
But as Jackal is soon to learn, his pride may be misplaced. Because a dark secret lies at the heart of the Bastards' existence - one that reveals a horrifying truth behind humanity's tenuous peace with the orcs, and exposes a grave danger on the horizon.
On the heels of the ultimate betrayal, Jackal must scramble to stop a devastating invasion - even as he wonders where his true loyalties lie.
A standout adventure fantasy debut that's down, dirty and damn good fun - perfect for fans of Joe Abercombie, Mark Lawrence, Markus Heitz's Dwarves series and Stan Nicholl's Orcs series.
Critic reviews
"Filthy, charismatic, and frankly excellent." (Mark Lawrence)
"A bloody tale of battle, betrayal and war pigs." (Brian McClellan)
"Jonathan French has to be lauded for his plot ingenuity, bawdry charm and vicious characters. The Grey Bastards has instantaneously catapulted him into my must-read list." (Fantasy Book Critic)

Enjoyable!
As my first audio book it took a few chapters to get use to, but before long found it to be an enjoyable experience! The book was entertaing with a good pace and plenty of action. The narration was well delivered and helped keep the story flowing enjoyably.

Great story and twists.
Great story, unexpected twists and great discription of characters.
Not a fan of the almost pornographic scenes but that is more of a personal con.

Surprisingly good
The book was a bit slow at first, but became more captivating the more I listened.
