    Summary

    When Daemon Targaryen claims his bastard daughter, Maelyra, born from a pirate captain he took for a lover in his time as King of the Narrow Sea, it’s not to raise her in court and gown her in dresses. That’s for his trueborn daughters, Baela and Rhaena. No, Lyra, the child of a fallen Tyroshi pirate captain, possesses too many skills Daemon can use in his strategies and plots, as he senses building strife between the courts of Queen Alicent and Princess Rhaenyra. He needs a spy, an assassin, and a dragonrider no one expects, so he brings his bastard into the household of Driftmark, disguised as nothing more than a foreign serving girl.

    Lyra grows up between Driftmark, the Red Keep, and Dragonstone in the events leading up to the Dance, and as tensions rise, her loyalties are tested, especially when she finds herself caring for someone who may bring doom upon those she calls kin.

    (Basically all of Rhaenyra and Daemon’s kids have a secret older sister who will smother them with eldest sister energy in all events leading up and into the Dance. Also slow burn friends-to-enemies-to-secret-third-thing between female OC/Aemond.)

    Summary

    “Deserved… That boy did not deserve to die. Why could you not have just let it go? We do not, all of us, have the means to take back that which was stolen from us. Some of us have to learn to live with our pain knowing we may never get justice for it. What pain you have wrought now for all of us because you could not live with yours.”

    You know nothing of my pain.”

    Summary

    Aemond had a certain hunger for his desires, a neediness in his chest he couldn't quite snuff no matter how hard he may try. He liked what he liked: a freshly ink-pressed scroll not yet stained from the oils of another's hand, the smell (but not the taste) of amber liquor, the imagined weight of a crown resting on his brow, and of course, her.

    His mistake was not realizing that others could see what he favored as well.

    Summary

    Aemond Targaryen is nothing without his dragon. Vhagar is the greens’ greatest weapon, his source of strength, and mayhaps his only friend. When an accident leaves him grounded and his family vulnerable, he is forced to seek out the strangest of allies to help him back into the skies, before King Viserys meets the Stranger and civil war tears apart the Seven Kingdoms.

    Jeyne of Cobbler’s Square is impulsive, lonely, braver than any common woman ought to be, and burdened with a secret: in her blood lies a power greater than any dragonlord, and the key to Vhagar’s flight. When Aemond stumbles upon her in the streets of King’s Landing, she is drawn into the dangers of a divided court, Otto Hightower’s schemes, and the fate of dragonkind itself.

    Their love is so fierce that Aemond begins to question his duty and honour, but the Dance of Dragons will leave them bloodied and torn apart, fighting for their survival.

    ---

    The Dance of the Dragons retold, with a love story that changes the fate of Seven Kingdoms. Romance and battle scenes in equal measure, rich in ASoIaF lore, green-focused but with nuanced, flawed characters. Told through multiple POVs (Aemond, Aegon, Alicent, Otto, Daemon, and two OC’s).
