This is the story of the seige of Troy from the perspective of Achilles best-friend Patroclus. Although Patroclus is outcast from his home for disappointing his father he manages to be the only mortal who can keep up with the half-God Archilles. Even though many will know the facts behind the story the telling is fresh and engaging.
Such a beautifully written and captivatingly intimate work. I was so entranced and obsessed, I finished it in two days!
If you're a fan of historical tragic romance -and even if you aren't- this is THE book to read
Didn't meet my expectations as far as the reviews went, but still a very good book.
