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.

Historia
Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.

Celaena Sardothien is Adarlan’s most feared assassin.

But by acting on her own terms, will Celaena truly free herself from her master, or will she suffer an unimaginable punishment for such treachery?

Glen Runciter runs a lucrative business - deploying his teams of anti-psychics to corporate clients who want privacy and security from psychic spies. But when he and his top team are ambushed by a rival, he is gravely injured and placed in "half-life," a dreamlike state of suspended animation.

The Anarchy tells the remarkable story of how one of the world’s most magnificent empires disintegrated and came to be replaced by a dangerously unregulated private company, based thousands of miles overseas in one small office, five windows wide, and answerable only to its distant shareholders. In his most ambitious and riveting audiobook to date, William Dalrymple tells the story of the East India Company as it has never been told before, unfolding a timely cautionary tale of the first global corporate power.

Historia
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.

Historia
"The Near Witch" is only an old story told to frighten children. If the wind calls at night, you must not listen. The wind is lonely and always looking for company. There are no strangers in the town of Near. These are the truths that Lexi has heard all her life. But when an actual stranger, a boy who seems to fade like smoke, appears outside her home on the moor at night, she knows that at least one of these sayings is no longer true.

Historia
Call Me by Your Name first swept across the world in 2007. It is the story of a sudden and powerful romance that blossoms between an adolescent boy and a summer guest at his parents' cliffside mansion on the Italian Riviera. During the restless summer weeks, unrelenting but buried currents of obsession, fascination, and desire intensify their passion as they test the charged ground between them and verge toward the one thing both already fear they may never truly find again: total intimacy.

A Captivating Ode to Love, Fate, and Heroism
The Song of Achilles, written by Madeline Miller, is an exquisite masterpiece that gracefully brings to life one of Greek mythology's most iconic tales. Blending history and mythology with a touch of romance, Miller weaves an enchanting narrative that captures the essence of human emotions, illuminates the complexity of relationships, and explores the true meaning of heroism.
At the heart of this epic is the tender and powerful bond between Patroclus, an exiled prince, and Achilles, the legendary hero of the Trojan War. From their initial meeting as young boys to their tumultuous journey through adolescence and war. Miller's portrayal of their relationship is both delicate and intense, filling the pages with vulnerability and unwavering loyalty.
Miller's writing style is as poetic as the legends themselves. Her prose glides effortlessly, painting vivid scenes of ancient Greece, immersing the reader in a world of gods and mortals. She masterfully combines vivid descriptions with introspective moments, capturing the inner struggles and desires of her characters. The author's meticulous research is evident, as she seamlessly incorporates elements of Greek mythology, weaving them into the fabric of the story with authenticity and reverence.
I could not recommend this book more.

Miller is a marvel
An excellent follow up to Circe, Miller’s story telling creates rich characters that pull the listener in and her style is perfectly suited to this period of classical history and mythology.

Beautiful story with amazing prose!
Yet another fantastic book by Miller! I couldn’t put it down. The intro was a bit slow but so necessary. It exceeded all expectations. Cannot recommend it enough. The narrator is amazing and embodies the characters in a phenomenal way.
