Patroclus is an exiled young prince who is sent to the kingdom of Phthia. He meets Achilles, the son of a king and a sea nymph, and a demigod destined to become the greatest warrior of his generation.
Despite their differences—Patroclus is awkward and unassuming, while Achilles is graceful and powerful—they form an immediate and inseparable bond. Their deep friendship blossoms into a forbidden and enduring love, much to the displeasure of Achilles' mother, the goddess Thetis, who views Patroclus as an unworthy mortal.
As the Trojan War looms, and the heroes of Greece are called to fight, Achilles must choose between a life of peace and a destiny of glorious, eternal fame. He joins the cause, and Patroclus, torn between his love for Achilles and his fear for his friend's fate, follows him to Troy. The novel follows their journey through the decade-long war, exploring themes of destiny, love, honor, and the sacrifices made in the name of both personal glory and a love that defies the gods.
