A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms | Official Final Trailer | HBO Max - YouTube Watch On Age rating: TV-MA Seasons: 1 (renewed
for season 2) Creators: Ira Parker and George R. R. Martin Main cast: Peter Claffey, Dexter Sol Ansell, Daniel Ings, Shaun Thomas, Tanzyn Crawford, Danny Webb Episode length: 3042 minutes This prequel to Game of Thrones is a must watch for fantasy fans, with my colleague Tom Power describing the A Knight
of the Seven Kingdoms as "a slam-Dunk of a high-fantasy show from HBO".

The series follows Ser Duncan "Dunk" the Tall, a lowborn hedge knight as he takes Prince Aegon "Egg" Targaryen as his squire. Across six episodes we follow the dynamic between these two, with some laugh out loud moments along the way.

Don't think it skips on the drama though, it's just as good as the original series and if you're keen to see more from the universe, it's well worth checking out. Follow TechRadar on Google News and add us as a preferred
