To Be a King

The world-building feels so vivid and lively — I wonder if the author based it on a real place or created it entirely from imagination.

Their struggles and triumphs made me root for them, but I kept wondering how much of their personalities were inspired by real animals or pure fiction.

It’s fun and exciting, but I also felt like there are important messages about bravery and responsibility woven in. Did anyone else pick up on that?
