Mécaniques Fatales

The concept of cities on wheels moving across a ruined landscape is so unique. I wonder if it was inspired by any particular science fiction or fantasy works, or if it came from the author's own imagination.

The villains aren’t purely evil, which made me think about how power corrupts. Did others feel conflicted about rooting for certain characters despite their ruthless actions?

The pacing kept me hooked, but I also loved the detailed descriptions of the traction cities and the society they created. I’m curious whether this balance was planned or evolved during writing.
