The three interlocking novellas in this collection, all recently published, make for a brilliant prelude to Martin's bestselling Music of Ice and Fire légende. Set 90 years before the functions in A Game of Thrones, they chronicle the encounters of Ser Duncan the Tall, a humble hedge knight whose ethical comportment is often at probabilities with the schemes of the royals who rule the More effective Kingdoms. In "The Hedge Dark night, " Duncan is forced to fight a brutal trial by combat for defending a commoner against a cruel prince's son. Both in "The Sworn Sword" and "The Mystery Knight, " Duncan advances further towards fulfilling his destiny as a knight of the Kingsguard, foreseen in ambitions throughout the stories. The stories are top-heavy with tournaments and bloody battles, but also rich in human drama and the colorful worldbuilding that distinguishes other books in the series. The appearance of youthful versions of characters who figure in the later novels makes this collection a must-read for Martin's legions of fans. (Oct. )\n
