Talia, die Mahnerin

The story balances grand magical battles with complex political schemes. I'm curious what inspired her to weave these elements together and how she approached pacing these aspects.

The characters' quests and alliances felt rich, but I found myself questioning some of their choices. What did others think about the character development throughout the novel?

The setting feels so immersive and detailed — I wonder if Mercedes Lackey created a lore bible or if it developed organically during writing.
