Tricksters

Their wit and mischief really stand out, and I'm curious if this was inspired by any particular myths or stories. Did the author want to teach a lesson about resourcefulness?

The tone felt light and fun but also carried moments of real bravery. I wonder how Pierce managed to keep that balance without making it feel too childish or too serious.

The magic feels so natural and integrated into the story. I wonder whether Pierce developed the rules early on or let it evolve as she wrote.
