SynopsisThe ice dragon was a creature of legend and fear, for no man had ever tamed one. When it flew overhead, it left in its wake desolate cold and frozen land. But Adara was not afraid. For Adara was a winter child, born during the worst freeze that anyone, even the Old Ones, could remember. Adara could not remember the first time she had seen the ice dragon. It seemed that it had always been in her life, glimpsed from afar as she played in the frigid snow long after the other children had fled the cold. In her fourth year she touched it, and in her fifth year she rode upon its broad, chilled back for the first time. Then, in her seventh year, on a calm summer day, fiery dragons from the North swooped down upon the peaceful farm that was Adara's home. And only a winter child--and the ice dragon who loved her--could save her world from utter destruction. "The Ice Dragon" marks the highly anticipated children's book debut of George R.R. Martin, the award-winning author of the "New York Times" best-selling series A Song of Ice and Fire and is set in the same world. Illustrated with lush, exquisitely detailed pencil drawings by acclaimed artist Yvonne Gilbert, "The Ice Dragon" is an unforgettable tale of courage, love, and sacrifice by one of the most honored fantasists of all time., The ice dragon was a creature of legend and fear, for no man had ever tamed one.

The Ice Dragon
I like to read George R.R. Martin. Started reading him in 1990 and have followed him over the years. This is a children's' book and surprised me, so I bought a used one just for the opportunity to read the story, which was good and I enjoyed it. It was a one night read for me. About a winter born child who becomes friends with a a winter ice dragon. When her town is threatened by war she pleads for her friend to help.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

it was ok, but not what I thought.
This was not what I thought it would be. More like a young child's bedtime story. Thought it was part of the GOT's books. It was okay, but not much to say about the story line.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
