Strong, beautiful, and the son of a goddess, Achilles is everything Patroclus isn’t. Despite their differences, the boys remain steadfast friends. As they grow up, their bond deepens as they become skilled in the arts and sciences. Much to the displeasure and fury of Achilles’ mother, Thetis, who hates mortal beings.
“Built on the groundwork laid by Homer’s Iliad, Madeline Miller’s page turning, profoundly moving retelling of an epic war marks the launch of a brilliant career.”

When word comes that Helena of Sparta has been abducted, the men of Greece must lay siege to Troy for her sake. Torn between love and fear for her friend, Patroclus followed Achilles’ lead. They don’t realize that the Fates will put them through an ordeal that will be harder than anything they’ve ever faced before.
