The Great Change

Abercrombie's characters often blur the lines between good and evil. Did this complexity deepen the immersion or make it harder to root for anyone?

The setting feels rich and layered, but I'm curious whether the author started with a specific event or built the world first and then introduced the change.

The buildup was intense, but some chapters felt a bit slow. Was that intentional to heighten the tension or just a natural part of the story structure?
