What is “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” about?

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms on HBO Max follows the unlikely adventures of Ser Joren Mallor, a disgraced hedge knight who drifts into the politics and perils of Westeros while seeking redemption, coin, and a place to call home. Set years before the Targaryen civil war, the series blends low-stakes road-story charm with the looming threat of court intrigue as Joren crosses paths with fallen nobles, scheming minor lords, and dangerous outlaws; along the way he forms an uneasy fellowship with a clever squire, a sharp-tongued sellsword, and a noblewoman hiding a legacy that could upend the realm. Tonally wry yet grounded, the show balances duels and skirmishes with quieter character moments, revealing how honor, ambition, and survival collide when a single sword can change a fate—or start a war.
