Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Taking place nearly a century before the events of A Game of Thrones, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms compiles the first three official prequel novellas to George R. R. Martin’s ongoing masterwork, A Song of Ice and Fire. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY LOS ANGELES TIMES AND BUZZFEED These never-before-collected adventures recount an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne, and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living consciousness. Before Tyrion Lannister and Podrick Payne, there was Dunk and Egg. A young, naïve but ultimately courageous hedge knight, Ser Duncan the Tall towers above his rivals—in stature if not experience. Tagging along is his diminutive squire, a boy called Egg—whose true name is hidden from all he and Dunk encounter. Though more improbable heroes may not be found in all of Westeros, great destinies lay ahead for these two . . . as do powerful foes, royal intrigue, and outrageous exploits. Featuring more than 160 all-new illustrations by Gary Gianni, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a must-have collection that proves chivalry isn’t dead—yet. Praise for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms “Readers who already love Martin and his ability to bring visceral human drama out of any story will be thrilled to find this trilogy brought together and injected with extra life.”—Booklist “The real reason to check out this collection is that it’s simply great storytelling.

Martin has ever penned.”—Bustle “A must-read for Martin’s legion of fans . . . a rousing prelude to [his] bestselling Song of Ice and Fire saga . . . rich in human drama and the colorful worldbuilding that distinguishes other books in the series.”—Publishers Weekly

Book excerpt: Knight is the fourth book in the Reed Security Series and should be read in order. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up and I stiffened. He was here. I stood and looked around the room, but I didn't see anything. Walking over to the window, I looked out into the dark, hoping that I could see something. I would rather know exactly where he was than wonder the whole night if he was going to come for me. Hot air trickled across the back of my neck. My breath hitched as I felt a hand brush against the nape of my neck as my hair was shifted over my shoulder."You should be more careful when you're leaving work."His voice washed over me in that rough, deep tone that sent shivers down my spine."Why did you do that?" I asked, my heart beating out of control."He was hurting you.""I was running away. I would have gotten away."His hand brushed down my arm and then back up to rest on my shoulder. "He might have come back another night. A man like that, someone who would attack a woman just to get a fix, he doesn't deserve to live.""That's not your decision to make," I said shakily."I made it my decision the moment he put his hands on you, and I'd do it again."I spun around and faced the man that I had last seen just a week ago. "I don't need anyone killing to protect me. I heal people and that man could have been helped.""That man was scum and if he went after you, he would go after someone else. He didn't deserve to live.""Like you?"He took a step back and his jaw tightened. "I repaid my debt. You won't see me again.""I didn't want to see you again to begin with."He backed out of my room and was gone. I had no idea how he got in or how he left. He moved so silently that I didn't hear even my noisy stairs creak. Even though the man had just killed someone in front of me, I couldn't help but still want to see him again, no matter what I said. He intrigued me and terrified me all at the same time. I turned back to the window and stared out into the night, wondering if I would see him again.
