About this book
Patroclus, an awkward exiled prince, is sent to the court of King Peleus, where he forms an unlikely bond with Achilles, the golden boy destined for glory. Their friendship deepens through years of training under the centaur Chiron and hardens into something neither can name when the ships sail for Troy. Told entirely in Patroclus's quiet, watchful voice, this retelling turns the oldest war story in Western literature into an intimate account of devotion, ambition and the cost of prophecy. Lush, immersive and steeped in Bronze Age detail, it carries an ache of inevitability from the first page.
