The book is about Thrall's journey from a slave, to becoming a gladiator and finally chieftain of the orcish Horde. The main villain of the book is Aedelas Blackmoore, who commands the encampments where the orcs were imprisoned, and also Thrall's (thrall means slave to humans) former owner. Thrall escaped Blackmoore's tyrany with the help of a young human girl named Taretha. He then set out to find a group of orcs that had evaded Blackmoore. He found these orcs to be the Warsong clan, led by Grom Hellscream (Named for his hellish warcry of course). He then went to the mountains to find his original home, The Frostwolf clan. He met with them a shaman, who taught thrall the ways of his people. He then rallied an army and attacked the fortress of Durnholde, home of Aedelas Blackmoore.
