Der 13 Krieger. Schwarze Nebel. Der Roman zum Film

The mix of real historical figures and mythic creatures creates a unique reading experience. I'm curious about how much was based on research versus creative liberty.

The portrayal of the Vikings felt vivid but also romanticized at times. How do others interpret the balance between historical accuracy and storytelling?

The narrative style adds a layer of storytelling tradition, but did it influence how suspense or tension is built throughout the novel?
