Achaja. Tom I, część 2

The detailed setting feels incredibly immersive—I'm curious whether the author crafted the lore first or let it develop naturally during writing.

Her actions are sometimes morally gray, which made me wonder if she's a hero or anti-hero. How did others interpret her morality?

The pacing of revelations kept me hooked, but I'm interested in how the author planned the timing of these surprises for maximum impact.
