Royal Houses – Haus der Drachen (Royal Houses Reihe 1)

The characters' interactions often felt like a battle for dominance, which added tension but made me wonder about the true nature of their feelings.

The combination felt fresh and layered, but I’m curious whether it was a conscious choice to explore themes of duality and magic or something else.

There are so many factions and magical creatures — did the author plan it all out from the start or let it develop organically during writing?
