[Following is a volunteer review of "We are Voulhire: The Fires of Virko" by Matthew Tysz.]
Galen Bray in a land he isn't yet fixated at calling home, nonetheless, he feels relieved in his new home. He has commenced the mastering of his new craft, smith, but the small city he abides requires a constant supply of iron. The mayor of Magnum Caelum probed Galen to take a trip to Virko if he could lobby for iron. Galen journeyed with his two friends, Rowan and Demetrius, to Virko.
Virko the industrious city of voulhire was on the verge changing its system of government. Galen was directed to the dying Lord Venden, his request was accepted but with a gruelling favour attached. Lord Venden's only son, Folcro, was into dark magic. The favour required the imbuer in service of Galen, Demetrius, to unbind a demon. As Folcro was making his plan, so was Meldorath making his, with the aid of dark magic. Will Voulhire trump these evil plans and planner?
We Are Voulhire: The Fires Of Virko is the second instalment of the “We Are Voulhire” series. As the first set in the series is mainly for introduction to the different characters and theme play, so is the second an eye-opener to the physical, magical, and spiritual segment of voulhire.
Matthew Tysz adopted the same narrative techniques as the first instalment: a stream of consciousness (first person) with an intermittent flush of the omniscient narrative method (third person). This narrative method gave readers the ability to weave in their thought on the character's ability.
Since this is a book of the sci-fi genre, Tysz gave me a lot to fantasize about: dark magic, spirit, profane sexual adventures, and psychological problems. Tysz ensured I was at the edge of my seat, urging the continuous opening of pages just to see more and fantasize more.
Meanwhile, the book is a play of an ancient city (voulhire — not historical, only fiction) belief of different worlds Cosmos, Caromentis, and Alitheia (known as physical, magical, and spiritual respectively). This reference the book to lack the presence of a strong female entity, which is understandable only that people with specific belief will disagree: feminist
To note, the author improved on a few things in comparison to the first instalment: page numbering and better writing prowess. As always nothing is perfect, I noticed a few grammatical errors, which on the surface looked fine but when I looked closely they showed otherwise. The presence of these grammatical errors didn't shade the comprehension of this book, so I can conclude, the book was perfectly edited and proofread.
I can't help but heap praises on the author for an interesting and thrilling book he made, for this, I will rate it four out of four stars. Because the book is worth it, it will be a welcome bonus if it finds its way to our screens. I will gladly recommend this book to a lover of dark magic; even a fantasy enthusiast will find this book in his good book. For the presence of profane words, I won't recommend it to a young reader, also I don't think feminists will love the disregard of female entities.
Note, this book won't make any sense to a first-time reader of this series. Because it is a sequel to the first instalment, only a person that has read the first instalment will find it interesting.
