A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms release schedule: When is episode 2 out?

A new book set in the world of Game of Thrones will explore what happened in Westeros between the events of that series and the prequel, House of the Dragon.

This series is a more intimate story, focusing on Ser Duncan the Tall (Peter Claffey) and his young apprentice, Prince Aegon Targaryen (Dexter Sol Ansell), who are known affectionately as ‘Dunk and Egg’.

Inspired by George R.R. Martin’s novellas, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms tells a more adventurous and heartwarming story than the usual political dramas, focusing on an unexpected friendship.

Honestly, after all the chatter around House of the Dragon, I think people are really craving something different. There’s a lot of buzz about this new take on George R.R. Martin’s world, and everyone seems genuinely excited to see a fresh perspective on that amazing fantasy universe.
