The honest king story could center around a king who values honesty above all else. His honesty might be shown in how he deals with the court, for example, not accepting bribes or false testimony.

One characteristic is its deviation from traditional science fiction norms. It often has really strange or unique settings, like in 'Annihilation' where the area called Area X has a completely alien and unknowable nature.
