The Liar's Key

The shifting viewpoints added complexity and depth, but I wonder if it was planned from the start or evolved during writing. Did it help build suspense or make the story harder to follow?

The setting felt alive with its own history and politics, but I kept wondering if the characters truly stood out or if they were just part of this vast backdrop. What did others think?

The atmosphere is so intense and gritty — I’m curious whether this tone was inspired by specific myths, other fantasy works, or the author's own interests.
