Piorun i cień

The way the cats' society and traditions were described made it feel really real. I'm curious if the author based it on real animal behavior or created it from scratch.

The story's setting feels rich and layered, making me wonder if there were specific influences or stories that sparked this universe's creation.

The book starts with so much energy and then slows down a bit before picking up again. Was this a deliberate choice to build tension or just natural story flow?
