Heel is a science fiction novella by Philip José Farmer, written in the early 1960s. It reimagines the Iliad, merging mythological elements with a futuristic setting aboard a spaceship, where gods and a production crew navigate themes of power, love, and fate. The story uniquely blends the Trojan War narrative with modern concepts of film production, making it a notable work in the genre of human-alien encounters.
