Queen of the Dead

The demons in this story feel layered and humanized, which adds depth to the fantasy world. I'm curious whether this was a conscious choice to challenge typical portrayals.

The romance added a compelling layer to the story, but I wondered if it ever threatened to overshadow the fantasy elements. What did others think about the balance?

The political intrigue among demons was fascinating and complex. I wonder if the author based this on any mythologies or created it from scratch.
