Golgof’s Kommandos are the best there is, the sneakiest there is. They’ll deal with the death-ghosts in the forest. That’s what Golgof has promised Warboss Skullcrak, and that’s what his boyz will do. But as their black-clad foes lure them deeper into the forest, Golgof starts to realise that his Kommandos might not be quite the sneakiest after all…

Maybe I don't like the Raven Guard as much as I want to, but this was a disappointing intro to them.

I have read about Shrike once before in "Hunt for Valdorius" and he was my favourite character in that book. So I was really excited to read a short story about him, especially from his enemies point of view!
The orks never stood a chance! And his appearance at the end was stunning!

The only thing that irked me about the short story was that the orks didn't speak in "ork speak" but that is only a very minor annoying detail
