What I find interesting are the individual Orcs that he describes. They all have different personalities which I find quite interesting, becasue at first it seemed that thaey were like machines, just blindly following Sauron, but then see them start arguments against each other, and other things. I like the idea that Tolkien has (stated above by davem) about there being Orcs & Angels on both sides. I think an example (in LOTR) of an orc on the good side (even though this is the tale where orcs are real, but just think about the symbolism) is Saruman. I'm sure there's an angel on the bad side, I just can't think of one now (possibly Gollum as Smeagol?).
I'm not sure if I made any sense there or if I actually said what I meant but, oh well.
