THE BLOOD ROYAL.

THE DRAGONS ARE DEAD.
THE CROWN IS WEAK.
AND THE TRUE GODS OF VALYRIA HAVE JUST AWOKEN.

The year is 230 AC.
One hundred years after the devastating dance of dragons.
House Targaryen rules have fractured Westeros by threadbare politics alone.
Their great beasts are nothing but ash and bone.
The Iron Throne sits vulnerable, waiting for a force ruthless enough to seize it.

Enter House Mikaelson-Targaryen.
For a thousand years, the Original Vampires lived as myths in the frozen, jagged fjords of the far north of Scandinavia.
Older than the Andal Invasion, older than Valyria itself, they have watched humanity rise and fall. Now, led by the brilliant diplomat Elijah and the volatile, bloodthirsty Niklaus, they have crossed the Narrow Sea to claim their birthright.
They do not come alone.

Beneath the obsidian cliffs of their new fortress, Bloodstone Keep, sleeps a secret they have guarded for centuries: a terrifying fleet of eight massive, living dragons.
But the Mikaelsons are not the only apex predators hiding in the shadows.

From the lawless wilds North of the Wall comes Hayleyy, a fierce brunette princess marked by a striking Valyrian-white streak of hair.
She is the heir to House Targaryen-Labonair-a royal clan of Wolf-Vampire hybrids born from ancient blood magic.
When her father, Lord Andre, catches wind of the Mikaelson invasion, he commands a union that will alter the course of history.

Brokered by Elijah's cunning diplomacy, Niklaus and Hayleyy are bound in a political marriage of blood and bone.
Together, the Great Hybrid and the Northern Wolf form a terrifying new dynasty.

With vampire compulsion running rampant through the unsuspecting courts of King's Landing, a fierce host of wolf-hybrids marching from the North and the skies raining fire, the dragonless king stands no chance.

The Seven Kingdoms will bend the knee to an immortal crown- or burn to ash.
The age of the hybrids has begun.
