About this listen
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER •
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. Martin’s ongoing masterwork, A Song of Ice and Fire.
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY LOS ANGELES TIMES AND BUZZFEED
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. Before Tyrion Lannister and Podrick Payne, there was Dunk and Egg.
A young, naïve but ultimately courageous hedge knight, Ser Duncan the Tall towers above his rivals—in stature if not experience. Tagging along is his diminutive squire, a boy called Egg—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. Featuring more than 160 all-new illustrations by Gary Gianni, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a must-have collection that proves chivalry isn’t dead—yet.
Praise for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
“Readers who already love Martin and his ability to bring visceral human drama out of any story will be thrilled to find this trilogy brought together and injected with extra life.”—Booklist
“The real reason to check out this collection is that it’s simply great storytelling. Martin crafts a living, breathing world in a way few authors can. . . . [Gianni’s illustrations] really bring the events of the novellas to life in beautiful fashion.”—Tech Times
“Stirring . . . As Tolkien has his Silmarillion, so [George R. R.] Martin has this trilogy of foundational tales. They succeed on their own, but in addition, they succeed in making fans want more.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
“Pure fantasy adventure, with two of the most likable protagonists George R. R. Martin has ever penned.”—Bustle
“A must-read for Martin’s legion of fans . . . a rousing prelude to [his] bestselling Song of Ice and Fire saga . . . rich in human drama and the colorful worldbuilding that distinguishes other books in the series.”—Publishers Weekly

Amazing and talented voice acting
Narrator performs voice acting and storytelling so well that after a while of listening you sometimes forget that it's only 1 guy doing so many different voices. Easily paints a clear image in the readers brain of what is happening and captures Martin's vision perfectly. Hope he reprises his role as narrator in any future books to come

Thoroughly enjoyable.
Nice to hear some stories from the Targaryen days. A more lighthearted glimpse into Martin's world. Harry Lloyd does a great job on this.

A solid listen for fans of A Song Of Ice And Fire.
Great story but the volume of the narrator was too low at times to the point where it was hard to hear.

Unreal
Less magic, more tourneys, and a great pair of lead characters, exactly what I want out of ol’ Georgey

wow
I fell in love with Dunk within the first few paragraphs. I wish this book was longer. I can't wait to find out what happens next!

Such a satisfying book
This book is to ASoIaF as The Hobbit is to LOTR - a colourful and engaging (if naive, in a good sense) personal tale inside a rich and deep universe.

Loved it
I really enjoy reading GRR Martin. My only complaint is the use of the word “niggardly”
I feel like the editor could have replaced that word with something less racist

Masterpiece! A saga of honor and duty!
Harry Lloyd, Viserys Targaryen in the first season of the HBO series Game of Thrones, brings the tale of Duncan the Tall to life. Lloyd's performance is powerful, articulate, and engaging while the writing is some of Martin's finest. The three tales of Dunk and Egg are beautifully written and immerse the listener in the realms of Westeros. Certainly a story that I will revisit one day.

a little bit of GoT to wet your pallet
the wait for the next ASOIAF book has been and will probably still be long. these short stories are just the thing to get the pallet in the dry wait.
