Les Assassins: Terrorisme et politique dans l’Islam médiéval (Le goût de l'Histoire t. 6)

The story's twists kept me on the edge of my seat, but I'm curious whether the plot was planned out in advance or evolved during writing.

The tension was high throughout, but the ending seemed to rush — was that a deliberate choice to heighten suspense or just pacing?

The action scenes felt visceral, but I wonder if the focus on thrill rather than depth was intentional to keep the story moving.
