Talion

The detailed environment and cultures felt so immersive—I'm curious whether the author mapped out the entire world beforehand or let it develop organically during writing.

It made me think about how far someone would go when driven by loss and anger. Did the book change how anyone perceives revenge as a theme?

The pacing kept me hooked, but I wondered if the focus on battles and quests overshadowed the characters’ internal journeys at times.
