What is A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms about?

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a Game of Thrones prequel show that will adapt Martin's trilogy series of the Tales of Egg and Dunk series. The series includes three novellas, The Hedge Knight, The Sworn Sword, and The Mystery Knight.

The official logline to the show reads as follows-

“A century before the events of Game of Thrones, two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros… a young, naïve but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg,”
“Set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory, great destinies, powerful foes, and dangerous exploits all await these improbable and incomparable friends.”

The 'Egg' is later revealed to be Prince Aegon Targaryen, who was disguising himself to learn the ways of common living, and will be accompanied by Sir Dunk on many adventures, as accounted in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.
