5 Most Accurate A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Characters, Based on the Books

Much of the show’s success is due to Ira Parker, the showrunner and a dedicated fan of George R.R. Martin’s novels. Under his direction, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms captures what readers loved about the books: a more intimate look at Westeros, focusing on the everyday people who keep the realm functioning despite the hardships caused by those in power. It feels like a heartfelt tribute to the source material, staying very true to the original stories with most of the dialogue and character development taken directly from the books.
