Tales of Dunk and Egg

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
Book •
'Tales of Dunk and Egg' is a series of novellas by George R.R.

Martin set in the world of 'A Song of Ice and Fire', about a century before the events of the novels.

The stories follow the adventures of Ser Duncan the Tall, a hedge knight, and his squire, Egg, who is secretly Prince Aegon Targaryen.

These novellas offer a more focused and less sprawling narrative compared to the main series, exploring themes of chivalry, loyalty, and the challenges of upholding honor in a morally complex world.

Through Dunk and Egg's travels and encounters, the reader gains insights into the history and political landscape of Westeros, as well as the early life of a significant Targaryen figure.

The series blends action, mystery, and character development, providing a compelling and accessible entry point into Martin's richly detailed fantasy universe.
