George R.R. Martin Discusses Changes in A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS

HBO’s upcoming series, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, is garnering positive feedback from George R.R. Martin due to its collaborative creative process with showrunner Ira Parker. Set decades before Game of Thrones, it follows Dunk, a hedge knight, and his important squire Egg as they navigate political turmoil. Martin particularly appreciates the character-focused expansion, especially the introduction of Lyonel Baratheon, and the ambitious visual storytelling. The series premieres on January 18, aiming to carve its own niche within the franchise.
