Reviews

I loved it
*J.K. Rowling*

A captivating retelling of the Iliad and events leading up to it through the point of view of Patroclus: it's a hard book to put down, and any classicist will be enthralled by her characterisation of the goddess Thetis, which carries the true savagery and chill of antiquity
*Donna Tartt*

At once a scholar’s homage to the Iliad and startlingly original work of art by an incredibly talented new novelist ... A book I could not put down
*Ann Patchett*

Inventive, passionate, uplifting and different ... A truly worthy winner
*Joanna Trollope*
