Crown of War and Shadow: Der Fluch der Königreiche

The magic feels so intricate and well-developed—I'm curious if the author started with a detailed lore or let it evolve organically during writing.

The romance adds a layer of vulnerability amidst the chaos, but I wondered if the darker tone made the relationship feel more genuine or conflicted.

Some parts felt fast-paced with lots of battles, but the emotional moments seemed to slow things down—was that intentional to deepen the characters?
