We are voulhire: A New Arrival under Great Skies is sighted in the old days when the lands were ruled by kings and people practiced magic. There was a king who had sons who had equal claim to the throne, so the king gave each one them an island so as to avoid wrangles between them. The islands given to the princes were continuously in war with each other due to sibling rivals. The commoners in those lands lived in extreme poverty caused by the war. In the princes lands their lived a young man called Galen who had an uncle in voulhire and the uncle had left him an inheritance in magnum caelum. Galen was trying his best to reach the shores so as to board a ship to magnum caelum for he was being chased by guards. Reaching the shore he found a captain who helped him fight the guards. Galen boarded the ship and reached magnum caelum where he found his inheritance and took after his uncle's career as a blacksmith. In voulhire the king appointed one of his judges as a lord to rule hillport and restore it to it's potential. The appointed lord eldus was happy developing hillport when he faced an attack from Riva Rohavi who killed him together with his daughter and wife but luckily his son escaped. This is a fascinating story that gives a clear historic picture.

Matthew tysz skillfull narration and arrangement of the book in chapter's each explaining the encounters of each character gives the reader easy follow up and understanding. The author also uses graphics of the map of voulhire which gives the reader a clear picture of voulhire hence enhancing one's imagination. Another positive aspect of the book is how the author uses dialogues which make the book more dramatic and hence interesting to continue reading. Matthew Tysz also uses humour slightly which makes the book enjoyable and also motivates one to finish reading the book.The author also provides a dictionary at the end of the book and characters descriptions at the start of the book so as to provide readers with easy reading and understanding of the book.

The negative aspect of the book is how the author leaves the readers in suspense with many unanswered questions for example what happened after the son of eldus escaped.

In my entire reading of the book I have not come across any errors, which is a proof of how the book was professionally edited.
I therefore give the book a perfect rating of 5 out of 5 stars.

Due to its dramatic actions, I would recommend this book to film producers as it is a perfect script for film production.
