The Ice Dragon is a children's novel by George R. R. Martin, originally published in the 1980 anthology Dragons of Light.[1] The novel was re-worked in 2007 with artwork by Yvonne Gilbert and again in 2014 with a series of original paintings by Luis Royo.[1]

Plot

The novel follows the story of a young girl, Adara, who befriends an ice dragon after the death of her mother. The book is not explicitly set in Martin's Westeros, but press releases and commentaries have noted that it is set in the same world.[2] However, Martin has stated on his livejournal that it is not.[3]
