The Privilege of the Sword

The world-building and court politics are so immersive, but I wondered if that took away from connecting with the characters on a deeper level.

The way these themes are integrated feels fresh and impactful. I'm curious about the creative process behind blending LGBTQ+ stories with fantasy.

The social dynamics are so nuanced, and I wonder if the author drew on specific historical influences or crafted them entirely from imagination.
