A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (A Song of Ice and Fire)

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (A Song of Ice and Fire)

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER â€¢Â NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY LOS ANGELES TIMES ANDÂ BUZZFEED â€¢Â Taking place nearly a century before the events of A Game of Thrones, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms compiles the first three official prequel novellas to George R. R. Martinâ€™s ongoing masterwork, A Song of Ice and Fire. These never-before-collected adventures recount an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne, and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living consciousness.
Â
Before Tyrion Lannister and Podrick Payne, there was Dunk and Egg. A young, naÃ¯ve but ultimately courageous hedge knight, Ser Duncan the Tall towers above his rivalsâ€”in stature if not experience. Tagging along is his diminutive squire, a boy called Eggâ€”whose true name is hidden from all he and Dunk encounter. Though more improbable heroes may not be found in all of Westeros, great destinies lay ahead for these two . . . as do powerful foes, royal intrigue, and outrageous exploits.
Â
Featuring more than 160 all-new illustrations by Gary Gianni, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a must-have collection that proves chivalry isnâ€™t deadâ€”yet.
