We Are Voulhire: A New Arrival Under Great Skies is an interesting and imaginative story written by Matthew Tysz. The story revolves around different cities in Voulhire. Galen was able to escape the Land of the Princes, which was a place at war, due to the personal desire of the Emperor of Lullabies. On getting to Magnum Caelum, he meets his uncle's executor, whose name is Rowan. He finds out that his uncle had passed away a week earlier, and he was the one to inherit all his wealth. Galen also was to learn the act of blacksmithing to be able to carry on from where his uncle had stopped. Rowan also took on the responsibility of helping Galen adjust to life in the new city.

The city of Hillport has gone through a lot since Lord Meldorath invaded it, killed Lord Orlin, and overthrew him. King Wilhelm has sent Lord Eldus to redeem the city of Hillport, and he has journeyed there. Get We Are Voulhire: A New Arrival Under Great Skies by Matthew Tysz to know if the city of Hillport was redeemed and how the journey of Galen was in Voulhire.

I liked this book for a lot of reasons, such as the fact that Rowan was patient with Galen in getting acquainted with the new environment, and he had a very high sense of humor. My favorite character was King Wilhelm because he is a good definition of a leader, and he was not weak or biased in his judgment.

Matthew did an interesting job in the development of the characters, and when there was a change in the scene, he didn't fail to make an indication that you would notice that there was a change in the scene. The idea of Matthew using a page to introduce the characters also made the book easy to understand, and anytime I needed to remind myself of the role of a character, I always made reference to the characters page. I also liked that Lord Eldus tried to relate well with the people of Hillport despite his position, which is a quality of a good leader.

I didn't have any reason to dislike this book. With this, I am rating the book We Are Voulhire: A New Arrival Under Great Skies by Matthew Tysz 5 out of 5 stars. I recommend this book to people who like adventure stories and books based on imagination. I didn't encounter any errors while reading this book, which shows that it was exceptionally edited.

Galen's escape from the land of the princes was the best decision he took in his life. Adding that it was also a place of war is enough reason to escape; no one wants to die.

This is an excellently written review. The book was also carefully drafted. I'm sure it tool the author months to come up with the names of the places in the book and the characters.

Lord Meldorath's invasion of their city hillport shows the weakness of Lord Orlin because if Orlin was prepared for war as a reigning lord, he wouldn't let Lord Meldorath overthrow his current glory.

It's good to know that the glossary at the end of the book makes it easier for readers to understand the Voulhirian terms.
