    As Australian and American forces pack up to quit Afghanistan, the uncrowned king of Oruzgan watches closely, narrowing his focus to the question of how to survive in a snake pit of tribal politics....A law unto himself, 40-ish warlord Matiullah Khan is cagey, oozing bonhomie and danger in equal measure.
