"The world of George R.R. Martin's Game of Thrones grows ever larger with A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, the third and newest HBO series based on Martin's books. The show follows a noble errant knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his squire and future king, Aegon V Targaryen (nicknamed "Egg"). While the two are destined for greatness, they start things out as underestimated underdogs in King's Landing."
"A Knight of the Seven Kingdomswhich debuts on HBO this Sunday nightadapts Martin's Tales of Dunk and Egg, a series of novellas published between 1998 and 2010. (All three books were collected in a single volume titled A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms in 2015.) The first novella, The Hedge Knight, begins approximately 90 years prior to A Game of Thrones. The HBO series is adhering closely to Martin's vision, with the new show set a century before the first season of Game of Thrones."
"All of Martin's stories in his Game of Thrones saga take place in a single timeline. The Maesters of the Citadel mark the coronation of Aegon I Targaryen, who unified the Seven Kingdoms, as the pivotal date for when things happened Before Conquest (BC) or After Conquest (AC). Of the HBO shows, House of the Dragon occupies the earliest place in the timeline, set between the years 129-131 AC."
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms follows Ser Duncan the Tall and his squire Aegon V Targaryen (Egg) as underestimated underdogs in King's Landing. The series adapts Martin's Tales of Dunk and Egg novellas, published between 1998 and 2010 and collected in 2015. The first novella, The Hedge Knight, begins roughly 90 years before A Game of Thrones. The HBO adaptation places the story about a century before the first season of Game of Thrones. All stories in the saga share a single timeline measured from Aegon I Targaryen's coronation as Before Conquest or After Conquest.
