The Last Paladin #1

The blending of a dystopian society with magic feels fresh but complex. I'm curious what influenced this combination and how the world-building evolved.

The internal conflict added depth to the story, but I wondered if this was something the author personally relates to or wanted to explore more deeply.

The story balanced action and world-building well, but I was curious whether the pacing was a deliberate choice to set the tone or if it evolved during writing.
