Клятва наемника

Elizabeth Moon’s depiction of complex loyalties and conflicts feels so authentic. I'm curious whether she drew from real-world history or crafted it entirely from imagination.

The characters often face impossible choices, and I found myself questioning what I would do in their place. How did others relate to their struggles with duty versus personal conviction?

There were intense scenes of conflict, but also deep moments of introspection. I wonder if Elizabeth Moon planned this rhythm from the start or let it evolve naturally.
