Blood of Fire and Water
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?

The Golden Heir
In a realm built on blood and fire, one name casts a shadow greater than all others: Lannister. While King's Landing drowns in the chaos of Joffrey's cruelty and Cersei's ambitions, another lion rises from the Rock. Gerold Lannister, the second born son of the queen, carries a secret bloodline and a destiny shaped by Tywin's ruthless hand. Trained by Ser Jaime and Ser Barristan to be a prodigy with the sword, sharpened by Tywin to be the heir Casterly Rock deserves, Gerold is the golden hope of a House built on power, gold, and pride. But in the game of thrones, hope is as dangerous as steel. Whispers call him the true prince, lords speak his name with reverence, and blades turn against him in shadows. With Liontooth, his Valyrian steel sword, at his side, Gerold must fight through court intrigue, war, betrayal, and forbidden desires to claim his place in history. For in Westeros, a lion cub must learn to kill or be devoured. (Disclaimer I do not own Game of Thrones or A Song of Ice and Fire.

In the shadow of Robert's Rebellion, a boy was born of both wolf and stag Torrhen Baratheon, firstborn son of Robert Baratheon and Lyanna Stark. Towering in strength like his father, yet cold eyed and calculating like his mother's kin, Torrhen grows into a warrior unmatched and a mind sharpened by maesters.

Wielding Robert's warhammer and a Stark's will of iron, he must navigate a court of vipers, survive the schemes of Cersei Lannister, and claim the crown meant for him.

The Mad King's Redemption (Being Rewritten)
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 heir apparent 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.
