Agatha Heterodyne and the Clockwork Princess

The tone is so distinctive—lighthearted yet adventurous. I'm curious what inspired the mix of comedy and fantasy in this story.

Her daring antics are so fun to read but also make me anxious about what could go wrong. Am I the only one who feels this way?

The universe feels rich and detailed, but I'm wondering if the authors planned out all the lore from the start or let it grow organically.
