Der Schatten im Norden

The mix of Victorian London and supernatural mysteries feels seamless. I'm curious if he planned this fusion from the start or evolved it during writing.

The characters often had to choose between right and wrong in complex ways. It made me think about how real dilemmas are messier than black-and-white.

There are some intense moments and moral questions that might be heavy for very young audiences. How do others think this impacts its accessibility for middle-grade readers?
