## Description

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.
