The Mystery Knight A full-color graphic novel edition of The Mystery Knight, one
of the thrilling Dunk and Egg novellas from George R. R. Martin's A Knight of
the Seven Kingdoms and a prequel of sorts to A Game of Thrones. Every wedding
needs a singer, and every tourney needs a mystery knight. Westeros is eerily
peaceful. King Aerys I sits on the Iron Throne. A ravaging plague has abated.
Yet beneath the surface, tensions linger sixteen years after a failed rebellion.
In these restless times, noble hedge knight Ser Duncan the Tall - Dunk, to his
friends - and his precocious boy squire, Egg, travel the Seven Kingdoms
performing chivalrous deeds, though Egg's bloodline must be concealed at all
costs. After heading north for Winterfell, Dunk and Egg are lured off the
kingsroad by a wedding feast-and an unusually lucrative tournament. The champion
jouster will claim a rare trophy indeed: a dragon's egg. Dunk, always better in
a melee, would be satisfied with a hot meal, a cup of wine, and a purse full of
coins. But a treasonous plot is more likely to hatch before another dragon ever
stretches its wings. Someone's on to Egg. And a mystery knight with designs on
an even bigger prize soon throws the entire affair into chaos.
