It does tie into the ASOIAF era timeline since you learn more about the Blackfyre Rebellion. And Egg is a tragic figure because when he grows up and becomes king he tries to unfuck the Targaryen dynasty by bringing back the dragons and ending the incest tradition but ultimately fails.

Also, it looks like everyone's actually wearing proper armor and surcoats and not weird leather crap like GOT. I'd like to see more such shows.

On the other hand, you could just read the novellas instead. I feel like Gurm probably wishes he'd made Westeroes more of an anthology with a bunch of novellas from different eras. He was always more of a short story guy before A Game of Thrones exploded in popularity.

Hedge Knight has the potential to be the most kino Westeros story.

That part of the books where it's suggested he just ignore the siege of Storm's End go on and hit King's Landing and the Lannisters while they're struggling to prepare. And he just responded that he didn't want it to go down in history that he lost one battle

Absolutely frustrating but it's 100% how a lot of rich/powerful people think.

GRRM needs to finish this shit. I haven't enjoyed any of the alternative fantasy authors my friends/coworkers have suggested like Sanderson.
