Tempered in Iron, Buried in Snow

When a broad-shouldered smith named Gendry arrives at Castle Black, Jon Snow expects just another broken recruit fleeing the war-torn Riverlands. Instead, he finds a man who held his little sister's heart and protected her through the darkest horrors of Westeros. Together with a rogue archer and a fever-dreaming Sandor Clegane, they trade the fierce, tragic, and occasionally hilarious stories of Arya Stark's survival. Drowning in their shared guilt for leaving her behind, Jon and Gendry quickly realize that the sweet girl they once loved is gone. In her place stands a brilliant, ruthless killer—and as winter descends on the Wall, the wolves are preparing to finally reunite and hunt.
