Histoire
In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born. But Circe is a strange child—not powerful, like her father, nor viciously alluring like her mother. Turning to the world of mortals for companionship, she discovers that she does possess power—the power of witchcraft, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves.

When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius—his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse.

Histoire
The tellers of Greek myths—historically men—have routinely sidelined the female characters. When they do take a larger role, women are often portrayed as monstrous, vengeful or just plain evil—like Pandora, the woman of eternal scorn and damnation whose curiosity is tasked with causing all the world’s suffering and wickedness when she opened that forbidden box. But, as Natalie Haynes reveals, in ancient Greek myths there was no box. It was a jar . . . which is far more likely to tip over.

But when, on the eve of the Trojan War, Agamemnon betrays Clytemnestra in the most unimaginable way, she must confront the curse that has long ravaged their family.

Description
The legend begins...
Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the kingdom of Phthia to be raised in the shadow of King Peleus and his golden son, Achilles. “The best of all the Greeks”—strong, beautiful, and the child of a goddess—Achilles is everything the shamed Patroclus is not. Yet despite their differences, the boys become steadfast companions. Their bond deepens as they grow into young men and become skilled in the arts of war and medicine—much to the displeasure and the fury of Achilles’ mother, Thetis, a cruel sea goddess with a hatred of mortals.
When word comes that Helen of Sparta has been kidnapped, the men of Greece, bound by blood and oath, must lay siege to Troy in her name. Seduced by the promise of a glorious destiny, Achilles joins their cause, and torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus follows. Little do they know that the Fates will test them both as never before and demand a terrible sacrifice.
Built on the groundwork of the Iliad, Madeline Miller’s page-turning, profoundly moving, and blisteringly paced retelling of the epic Trojan War marks the launch of a dazzling career.

Amazing
I had high expectations after finishing Miller’s “Circe”. I fell in love with Patroclus. This book was amazing, and I loved the narration and changing voices. I can’t wait for another great novel by Miller #audible1

Amazing in some ways...
I loved this book. It was amazing. The story line was intriguing and engrossing I had to keep turning the page. Each character felt different in their own way, by the way they walked or acted. The voice actor wasn't great he needed more emotion to convey what the characters were feeling.

Very good, but not as good as Circe.
I read the second novel first and found it to be outstanding! This is still an excellent book in my opinion but it didn't capture me as thoroughly. Maybe it was the backdrop of the Trojan war. Anyway I still enjoyed it!!

Beautiful and powerful
A Well-researched and vividly imaginative recreation of the western world’s oldest heroes. Miller gives familiar characters new depth and complexity and breathes new life into oft-told stories. Most importantly, she makes you feel in your chest the yearning ache that inevitably comes with deep love for another. A must-read.

I definitely recommend
the best book I have read in years. I tried reading another book about the gods but it was just too boring. I couldn't put this book down. It's perfect for people with low vocabulary. the story is amazing. I purchased the song of Achilles after reading Circe. I also purchased the audio of both to listen to before I go to sleep. Plus it helps to know how to pronounce names of the characters. Thank you so much for your awesome books. I look forward to your next book. Medusa would be a very interesting to read about. just a thought.

Astounding
The reviews and hype for this novel are truly deserved. Beautifully written, and profoundly moving. Capricous Gods, vengeful warriors, and disturbing family dynamics, plus an unexpectedly tender love.
It is an astounding book.
