Le Seigneur de l'Arc d'Argent

Gemmell's blending of myth and history feels seamless, but I wonder what inspired this particular approach and how much research went into it.

The gods and legends add a grand scale, but I was really moved by the characters' human flaws and choices. How did others connect with their inner conflicts?

The setting feels richly layered, but I'm curious whether the author created a detailed lore bible or if it evolved naturally during writing.
