There are things hidden in the far north, secrets buried under ice. Jon Snow faces the white walkers early, and stumbles upon a power that could change the world. It forges a new path for him and everyone around him - and a new journey south, a journey as a dragonrider, as a king of savages, feared throughout the lands north and south. The world begins to change - with steel and snow, fire and blood… Newly rewritten, edited and improved from the story's original 2018 release.
