The Song of Achilles

Patroclus, a young and clumsy prince, has been exiled to the kingdom of Phthia, where he lives in the shadow of King Peleus and his divine son, Achilles. Achilles, the best of the Greeks, is everything that Patroclus is not. One day Achilles takes the pitiful prince under his wing, and that temporary bond gives way to a solid friendship as they both become young men skilled in las arts of war. But fate is never far from Achilles' heels.
