What is A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms about?
The official logline for the GOT spin-off confirms that the show will be set in an era where the Targaryens still hold the power. However, it is not confirmed yet whether any dragons will be featured. The series is based on George R. R. Martin's Tales of Dunk and Egg. The official logline for the show reads:
“A century before the events of Game of Thrones, two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros… a young, naïve but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg. Set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne, and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory, great destinies, powerful foes, and dangerous exploits all await these improbable and incomparable friends.”
