Fire and Blood

For twenty years, the Pax Targaryen brought a golden age to Westeros, ruled by the combined strength of Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow. But shadows grow longest in the light. When their daughter, Visenya, ascends the Iron Throne, the peace shatters. Betrayed by those she trusted and hunted by the ambitious Ser Valerion Velaryon, Visenya is forced to flee the Red Keep with only her father's direwolf, Ghost, at her side.

Her destination is Dragonstone, the ancestral home of her kin, where the last of her mother's dragons, the titan Drogon, sleeps in the salt and stone. But she is not alone on the island. A man out of time, Aemond Targaryen-the legendary, one-eyed prince of the Dance-has emerged from the mists of history. As Visenya struggles to master the fire of her blood and the steel of her heritage, she faces a choice that will define the future of the realm: will she reclaim her throne through fire and blood, or will she break the cycle of history to forge a new destiny in the arms of a ghost from the past?
