Review

'In the grand epic fantasy tradition, Martin is by far the best … tense, surging, insomnia-inflicting' Time Magazine

‘Martin’s style is so vivid that you will be hooked within a few pages’ The Times

‘The sheer mind-boggling scope of this epic has sent other fantasy writers away shaking their heads …Its ambition: to construct the Twelve Caesars of fantasy fiction, with characters so venomous they could eat the Borgias’
Guardian

‘The writing is always powerful…' SFX

From the Inside Flap

Almost a century before A GAME OF THRONES, two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros... A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS compiles the first three official prequel novellas to George R.R. Martin's ongoing masterwork, A Song of Ice and Fire.

Before Tyrion Lannister and Podrick Payne there was Dunk and Egg. A young, naïve but courageous hedge knight, Ser Duncan the Tall towers above his rivals - in stature if not experience.

Tagging along with him is his diminutive squire, a boy called Egg - whose true identity must be hidden from all he and Dunk encounter: for in reality he is Aegon Targaryen, and one day he will be king. Improbable heroes though they be, great destinies lay ahead for Dunk and Egg; as do powerful foes, royal intrigue, and outrageous exploits.

A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS brings together for the first time the first three official prequel novellas to George R.R. Martin's ongoing masterwork, A Song of Ice and Fire, set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne, and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory.

Featuring more than 160 illustrations by Gary Gianni, one of the finest fantasy artists of our time, this beautiful volume will transport readers to the world of the Seven Kingdoms in an age of bygone chivalry.

5.0 out of 5 stars“Dunk the lunk, thick as a castle wall.”
By Sam Woodward TOP 1000 REVIEWER on 26 Sept. 2016
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
This book collects 3 novellas which are set in Westeros around 100 years before the events set down in Game Of Thrones. They were previously published separately & apart from graphic novel versions, have been out of print for many years.

As we all know, Westeros is crammed with amoral characters who blithely pursue their own self-interests. So it was refreshing to read about a naïve, well-meaning duo who - judging by the History Of The Seven Kingdoms companion volume - nevertheless come to have a significant impact on the fate of Westeros. However it’s a stretch to credit them with such significance when you first meet them. ‘Dunk the lunk’ is as straightforward as his name implies & his humbly-named squire ‘Egg’ is just a simple tavern boy - supposedly. An impoverished yet idealistic knight-for-hire with no land of his own, Dunk wanders from job to job like a medieval Incredible Hulk, or Littlest Hobo. When he tries to make a name for himself at a tournament, he unwittingly becomes a pawn in the political arena as well – a form of combat which he is far too naïve to handle.

The tournament is the first of the three stories collected here. All of them are very entertaining & much lighter that the monolithic Song Of Ice & Fire series, although still with cunning plots aplenty. Overall it was fun to see Westeros from a different perspective & I look forward to future Dunk & Egg stories, which the promises in the afterword. I just hope he finishes The Winds Of Winter first!

3.0 out of 5 starsA good read but not to Mr Martin's usual standard
By Amazon Customer on 14 Mar. 2017
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
No where close to his writing of ' A Game of Thrones", I thought some one else had written it, or else it was churned out quickly to profit from the GoT popularity. It wasn't a necessary book, wish he had spent his time adding more to the GoT storyline.

All round good yarn. Interesting to see the Game world before the main story and fun characters to get involved with. I have also read the graphic novels of the first two story's, excellent work.

I was very disappointed. The book was boring and I felt that it had been written for children. Nothing like the Game of Thrones series.
