Publisher's Synopsis
A curse hangs over Nuing's life. He may be the youngest son of the great headhunter Bujang Maias, but he is rejected by his longhouse community. When the people's fear of him becomes unbearable, Nuing leaves them together with his best friend Gunggu. Nuing and Gunggu wander the land until they eventually meet and are accepted by a group of travellers made up of cursed individuals. Soon after, however, the worst possible scourge befalls Nuing when he kills a demon huntsman.
