Martin's Griffin and credited to " George R.R. The book was eventually published on Maby St. Thomas Dunne Books announced in August 2011 that it had acquired the rights to Game of Groans, a parody of Game of Thrones in the vein of Bored of the Rings, by the pseudonymous " George R.R. A Game of Thrones: The Graphic Novel: Volume One. The first six issues were published as a trade paperback in March 2012: The series is set to run for 24 issues and is intended to follow the story of the novel closely. The first issue of the comic book adaptation of the first novel, A Game of Thrones, by fantasy author Daniel Abraham and artist Tommy Patterson, was published by Dynamite Entertainment in September 2011.
Most recently, The Sons of the Dragon was published in the 2017 anthology The Book of Swords, and chronicles the lives of Aenys I and Maegor I Targaryen (later known as "Maegor the Cruel"), who were the second and third kings to sit the Iron Throne, respectively. It is a prequel to The Princess and the Queen and concerns the life of Prince Daemon Targaryen, Rhaenyra's second husband. The Princess and the Queen, published in Dangerous Women (2013), details the civil war called the "Dance of the Dragons" between Aegon and Rhaenyra Targaryen about the succession to the Iron Throne.Ī fifth novella, The Rogue Prince, or, a King's Brother, was published in the 2014 anthology Rogues. Martin has written three additional novellas that are written as historical accounts of events that took place long before the events of the A Song of Ice and Fire novels or the Dunk and Egg novellas. The first and second novellas were, in addition, adapted as graphic novels: He wrote that because HBO owns the TV rights to the setting of Westeros (if not to the characters of the novellas), it would be preferable to have HBO adopt the novellas also.
įilm or TV adaptations of the novellas are being discussed, according to Martin in 2014. The first of these, comprising the first three novellas, was published – with illustrations by Gary Gianni – in October 2015, and in unillustrated translations earlier.
The unfinished series of novellas is to continue to be published in a series of collections entitled A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. The novellas were published in short story anthologies: The stories have no direct connection to the plot of A Song of Ice and Fire, although both characters are mentioned in A Storm of Swords and A Feast For Crows, respectively. These novellas are known as the Tales of Dunk and Egg after the main protagonists, Ser Duncan the Tall and his squire "Egg", the later King Aegon V Targaryen.
Martin wrote three separate novellas set ninety years before the events of the novels.
