De man van rook

The haunting mood really drew me in, but I'm curious whether the author drew from specific historical settings or personal interests when crafting this world.

The suspense felt carefully layered, but I wondered if the slower sections were meant to deepen character development or set up the climax.

The mix of fantasy and gothic horror felt seamless, but I wonder what guided the choice of which mystical aspects to include and how they fit the story's themes.
