The Half-Orcs series by David Dalglish spans ten books published between 2010 and 2024. The series follows Harruq and Qurrah Tun, half-orc brothers navigating a world that despises them. Their relationship forms the emotional core of the series, with Harruq drawn to combat and Qurrah to darker magical arts.
Starting with The Weight of Blood, the series builds through escalating conflicts that test the brothers’ bond. The later books, including The King of the Vile (2015) and The Legacy of the Watcher (2024), continue the story well beyond the original run, showing Dalglish’s ongoing attachment to these characters. The series balances large-scale fantasy warfare with the personal stakes of brotherhood and redemption.
