Before Tyrion Lannister and Podrick Payne, there was Dunk and Egg. A young, na ve 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFeaturing more than 160 all-new illustrations by Gary Gianni, \u003ci\u003eA Knight of the Seven Kingdoms\u003c\/i\u003e is a must-have collection that proves chivalry isn't dead--yet. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eA Knight of the Seven Kingdoms\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"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.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"The real reason to check out this collection is that it's simply great storytelling.
