Orc is a pitfighter made to thrash goblins and execute undesirables in front of ecstatic crowds. The pit's bookmaker says his kind’s only good for killing and dying and she’s got every right to profit off of it. He’s got other ideas. Mym is the lastborn daughter of dwarves slowly reverting to stone. Her folk believe only she can cure their petrification, but she’s a natural born sharpshooter more interested in stalking game than being some sort of chosen one. Then her father starts to harden up. Orc and Mym, reluctant heroes called to a frontier rotten with broken promises and the decadence of humankind.
