In a world still healing from the fires of Robert's Rebellion, a single truth unearthed too soon reshapes the fate of the Seven Kingdoms. Prince Steffon Baratheon, firstborn son of King Robert and Queen Cersei, is the true heir to the Iron Throne-noble in heart, sharp in mind, and nothing like the man who sired him. Guided by Jon Arryn's wisdom and protected by his sworn Prince's Shields, Steffon uncovers a secret that could plunge Westeros into chaos: the forbidden union between Cersei and Jaime Lannister, and the illegitimacy of Joffrey, Myrcella, and Tommen. To preserve the realm from another rebellion, the truth is buried-hidden behind smiles, oaths, and watchful eyes. Determined to rebuild his father's realm rather than watch it rot, the young prince embarks on a royal progression across the southern kingdoms-a journey that will shape the man he becomes. Along the way, he forges unbreakable bonds with Gendry Waters, Edric Storm, Mya Stone, Bella Rivers, and Harrold Hardyng. Together, they become his trusted circle-friends born of truth, loyalty, and shared burdens-bound not by blood, but by honor. In the Reach, Steffon's heart is captured by Margaery Tyrell, whose grace and ambition promise to heal the rift between crown and realm. Their union offers hope-a chance to rebuild Westeros not through war, but through unity. Yet destiny is not easily silenced. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen rises in fire and storm, a queen reborn who will not bend the knee. As oaths are tested and bloodlines reignite, Steffon must decide whether to fight the Mother of Dragons for his father's throne-or forge a new legacy beside her. In this tale of duty, love, and destiny, the Baratheon stag stands beside the dragon once more. The realm that bled for rebellion may finally find peace... or burn anew.

Aegon Targaryen, firstborn son of Prince Rhaegar and Princess Elia Martell, is the rightful heir to the Iron Throne and grandson of the Mad King, Aerys II. Older brother to Rhaenys and Orys, and nephew to Viserys and Daenerys, Aegon is one of the last surviving scions of House Targaryen. Gifted with powers that drew the attention of his grandfather, Aegon stood apart from his siblings from childhood. Tragedy followed quickly after his birth. His grandmother, Queen Rhaella, perished in childbirth with Daenerys when Aegon was only two years old. Three years later, his mother, Elia, died giving birth to Orys when Aegon was six, and only four months later, Robert's Rebellion began and swept away what remained of his family's reign-Rhaegar slain at the Trident, King Aerys struck down in the Red Keep, and the Targaryen dynasty shattered. Orphaned and hunted, Aegon, his siblings, aunt, and uncle were forced into exile. They were sheltered and raised in Essos under Prince Lewyn Martell, Ser Willem Darry, and their kin of the cadet Brightflame line, descendants of Prince Daeron "the Drunken," and Prince Aerion "Aerion Brightflame" Targaryen, in Braavos. In the house with the red door, Aegon grew into leadership, often clashing with his volatile uncle Viserys while finding love and strength in his bond with Daenerys. At sixteen, he wed her, fulfilling an ancient Targaryen custom, and the two welcomed a son, Jaehaerys, in 293 AC. For thirteen years, Aegon lived in exile, the reluctant head of his fractured house, trying to hold together a family burdened with both prophecy and pride. Yet destiny does not allow dragons to sleep forever. When a Pentoshi magister named Illyrio Mopatis offers them sanctuary, the course of history begins to shift once more. The dragon prince who should have been king now faces the world that took his birthright. But will fire and blood restore the throne-or consume him first?

Born during the War of the Ninepenny Kings on the 22nd day of the 9th moon in 260 AC, Prince Aerion Targaryen is the second son of King Aerys II and Queen Rhaella Targaryen. From the moment of his birth, Aerion was overshadowed by his elder brother, Prince Rhaegar-the presumed heir to the Iron Throne. Dismissed by many as the "spare," Aerion's life seemed destined to be one of quiet insignificance. Yet, even as a young boy, Aerion defied expectations. By the age of four, he was recognized as a prodigy-his natural talent and intellect eclipsing Rhaegar in almost every way. This unanticipated brilliance sowed jealousy in his brother and resentment in his mother, Rhaella, both of whom despised him for merely existing. In 265 AC, Aerion's fortunes began to change. The court could no longer ignore his potential, and the boy who had been overlooked found himself thrust into the center of attention. But as Aerion's star rose, so too did the weight of expectation and intrigue surrounding him. How will Aerion's extraordinary gifts shape his future? Will his rise bring redemption to House Targaryen, or will his family's inner turmoil and the Seven Kingdoms' simmering unrest threaten to destroy them all? Discover the life of Prince Aerion Targaryen as he navigates ambition, betrayal, love, and the shadow of his father's madness in The Mad King's Redemption.
