Iskreno ne znam šta da mislim o ovoj pričici. Dopala mi se, ali mi se i nije dopala. Nije jednostavno dati jednoj, jedinoj oceni. Naježila sam se na kraju, ali nisam baš ni sigurna zašto. Možda je to zato što priča ima nešto tajanstvenog, nešto što me privlači i istovremeno me zbunjuje. Imam i par pitanja za autora

Ig this is what little Targaryens were listening to before sleep.

It's an interesting thought, isn't it? The Targaryens, with their rich and complex history, might have had their own unique bedtime stories or lullabies.

Perhaps these tales were filled with the heroic deeds of their ancestors, the magic and mystery of the Seven Kingdoms, or the struggles and triumphs of their own family.

Listening to such stories before sleep could have inspired the little Targaryens, shaping their dreams and aspirations.

It makes you wonder what kind of impact these bedtime listenings had on their development and their view of the world.

Maybe it instilled in them a sense of pride in their heritage, a longing for adventure, or a determination to uphold the Targaryen name.

Although we may never know for sure what exactly the little Targaryens were listening to, it's fun to imagine the possibilities.

It adds another layer of depth and charm to the already captivating world of Game of Thrones.

This was a truly captivating read. It centered around a girl named Adara and an ice dragon that had the remarkable ability to always bring upon winter.

Adara's story was both enchanting and filled with mystery. The way the ice dragon interacted with her and the world around them was truly fascinating.

This being my very first George R.R. Martin book, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. His writing style is engaging and draws the reader in from the very beginning.

The vivid descriptions of the wintry landscapes and the majestic ice dragon made it easy to picture the scenes in my mind.

I found myself completely immersed in the story, eager to find out what would happen next to Adara and her icy companion.

Overall, it was a great introduction to the world of George R.R. Martin's literature, and I look forward to reading more of his works in the future.

From the moment Game of Thrones came out, I wanted to read a book by this specific author. I didn't want to pick up "A Song of Ice and Fire" due to its volume and the fact that the series isn't finished. So when I saw this particular one, I said I would give it a try.


The fact that it was illustrated was a pleasant surprise. The fact that it was a fairytale was yet another.


It was a pleasant companion that started off beautifully! It had dragons, how could I not like it? It's a beautiful fairytale with a bittersweet ending.


This book took me on a magical journey. The illustrations added another dimension to the story, making it come alive in my mind. The fairytale aspect was charming and engaging. I found myself completely immersed in the world the author had created.


Despite the bittersweet ending, I still thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. It was a great introduction to the author's work and has made me eager to explore more of their books in the future. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves fairytales, dragons, or just a good story.

I really like this child-friendly story, which comes with great illustrations.

Although I am not the target audience for this book, it is indeed a great one to introduce young readers to the world of fantasy and dragons without the presence of the gore factor.

Adara is not like other children. Born on the coldest day of the coldest winter, she is known as the winter child. It's not just because of her birthday date, but also her cold emotional state that even isolates her from her own family. However, she has one friend, the Legendary Ice Dragon, the most untameable of all dragon types. This is a tale of friendship and sacrifice.

If I had read this when I was 9 or 10 years old, I would have definitely given it 5 stars and become an instant fan. It has the power to capture the imagination of young minds and take them on a wonderful adventure.

The story is engaging and the characters are well-developed, making it a great choice for children who love fantasy and dragons.

Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a great children's story.

This story truly left me with a sense of being haunted. It's important to keep this in mind, and perhaps you should read the book yourself first before sharing it with your child. I firmly believe that this story carries a powerful message, although there is a possibility that the message could be misinterpreted.

For me, the message or symbolism here is that it's okay to be cold and alone at times, but it can be worthwhile to take a risk and experience someone else's warmth, especially the love of your family. It's perfectly fine to handle your pain and hurt on your own, but sometimes just feeling loved can heal even the deepest of wounds.

This book centers around Adara and focuses on three years of her life. She is a "winter child" as she was born during the worst freeze in history. Snow, ice, and cold have no effect on her whatsoever, and she gives off an Elsa-like vibe as she enjoys creating ice castles. She lives with her older brother, sister, and father. When she is four, she comes into close contact with "her" ice dragon, and at five, the ice dragon takes her for a ride. During these two years, Adara is very closed off and reclusive. In my view, she is scared to accept love and doesn't know how to deal with her pain and guilt. Additionally, there is constant talk of a war with dragons, and they hear the news from their Uncle Hal, who is a dragonrider in the king's army.

When Adara is seven, the dark dragons arrive. Her father refuses to leave their home as it is where his wife and parents are buried. Three dark dragons come and begin to attack their village with their riders. Adara is then faced with the choice between the safe, lonely, cold life or choosing to protect the warmth of her family's love.

Now, in my opinion again, this book also has underlying ASOIAF symbolism! I mean, it's literally ice versus fire! This book is set before the Seven Kingdoms, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to see ice dragons in Westeros. (Especially with a title like The Winds of Winter!)

I also have to mention the absolutely stunning illustrations in this book. I had never been exposed to Luis Royo's work before, but my eyes were truly blessed by what they saw in this story. I could gaze at this book for hours, it's so breathtaking. I also think the illustrations were a significant reason why this story resonated so deeply with me and, in turn, made me feel so haunted.

This is a very nice and well-written fairy tale. However, it is not really that childish. Personally, I wouldn't give it to very young children as there are some things in it that I think they might find a bit philosophical... (For example, the scene with Antara's godfather towards the end).

For anyone who likes fantasy and wants to spend a relaxing afternoon, I highly recommend it without hesitation.

The story has an engaging plot and interesting characters that draw the reader in and keep them entertained.

Although it may not be suitable for the youngest of audiences, it is still a great read for older children and adults alike.

The language used is vivid and descriptive, making it easy to imagine the scenes and settings in the story.

Overall, it is a charming fairy tale that is well worth reading.

Because it's Game of Thrones Season, and this particular season is none other than the Winter Season.

Moreover, it was the season finale, which added an extra layer of anticipation and excitement.

And, Summer Child, it has an Ice Dragon. The Ice Dragon is a magnificent and fearsome creature. It is a symbol of the power and mystery that lies within the winter season of Game of Thrones.

The image of the Ice Dragon, as depicted in the provided GIF, shows its majestic form, with its icy scales and powerful wings. It seems to be gliding through the cold air, ready to unleash its might.

The presence of the Ice Dragon in this season finale surely makes it a memorable and thrilling event for all the fans of Game of Thrones.

However, I am not one of those who love the winter season with its cold weather and its dull grayness. So, from where did the desire to read "The Ice Dragon" come to me..?!

As it welcomed me in a cold icy manner that I couldn't even raise my arms to hug it. But never mind... there was something that pushed me to continue reading. There was a warmth emerging from the pages.

Yes... don't ask me how? That's just the way it was and because of that I loved "The Ice Dragon" and its little friend "Adaara"....
