The Frozen Veil: The Wolves of Essos 2 ASOIAF

The fire and ash of the Twins are a grim receipt in the rearview mirror, but the blood-slicked mud of 299 AC leaves a stain that doesn't wash out. King Robb Stark is dead, the Riverlands are a lawless grave, and the trap has snapped shut. Carn Stark doesn't play the game of southern lords or linger in their ruins; his survival logic points strictly North. ​Now it is 300 AC, and the continent is fractured under the brutal grip of Bolton occupation. Running light, unarmored, and layered in heavy bear furs and boiled leather over their gear to endure the cold of the north, Carn and his vanguard execute a relentless breakout across a frozen wasteland. Their destination is the edge of the world: the Wall. ​But the strategic board at Castle Black has completely reset. Ned Stark's bastard, Jon Snow, has taken the black cloak of the Lord Commander, and a southern king named Stannis Baratheon has garrisoned the fort after breaking the Wildling host. Carn didn't cross an ocean to swear hollow oaths to dying orders or desperate kings. With Ātsio at his hip and his lethal, foreign pack at his back, he is pushing through the deep snows of the Gift to secure what remains of the frontline—and find out exactly what is left of the Stark blood.
