    Summary

    “You can use a spear as a walking stick, but that will not change its nature” - The Song of Achilles

    Hadrian is a spear- there's no denying it. He is sharp, he hurts those around him (near or far, it doesn’t much matter) and most of all, he stabs the feet that mistake him for a stick.

    Against the clock, Hadrian must learn the difference between living and surviving, love and hate; sacrifice and surrender.

    How does a boy reared for war and forged in hate learn to love?
