Overview
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a fantasy drama television series that serves as a prequel to Game of Thrones. Created by George R.R. Martin and Ira Parker, the show is set a century before the events of Game of Thrones, during a time when the Targaryen dynasty still rules the Iron Throne. The series follows the adventures of Ser Duncan the Tall, a courageous knight, and his squire, Egg, as they journey through Westeros. Their exploits involve encounters with great destinies, powerful enemies, and perilous challenges.

It features a cast including Peter Claffey, Dexter Sol Ansell, Daniel Ings, and Shaun Thomas. The series explores themes of knighthood, honor, and camaraderie within the richly detailed world of Westeros.
