Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the court of King Peleus and his perfect son Achilles. Despite their differences, Achilles befriends the shamed prince, and as they grow into young men skilled in the arts of war and medicine, their bond blossoms into something deeper - despite the displeasure of Achilles's mother Thetis, a cruel sea goddess. But when word comes that Helen of Sparta has been kidnapped, Achilles must go to war in distant Troy and fulfill his destiny. Torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus goes with him, little knowing that the years that follow will test everything they hold dear.

Zustand: Bueno. : Sumérgete en la Grecia de la era de los héroes con 'La Canción de Aquiles'. Patroclo, un joven príncipe torpe, es exiliado al reino de Phthia, encontrándose como un don nadie a la sombra del rey Peleo y su hijo dorado, Aquiles. A pesar de sus diferencias, Aquiles acoge a Patroclo, y su amistad florece en un vínculo profundo. A medida que crecen, su relación se intensifica, desafiando la desaprobación de Tetis, la madre de Aquiles. Cuando Helena de Esparta es secuestrada, Aquiles se une al asedio de Troya, seguido por Patroclo, quien desconoce las pruebas que les esperan.
