Welcome to a world of adventurers, imposters, a noble king, plotters and a prosperous nation on the verge of crises. We are Voulhire, Someone Else's End by Matthew Tysz is the third part of the fictional fantasy series, We are Voulhire. The adventure continues for Galen and his friends, who suspect something is amiss at Yamon Soul, the headquarter of Voulhire's church, and make up their mind to meet the king. Voulhire though is at a crossroad, the king must decide if they are to accept immigrants from wartorn Land of the Princes. As debates continue to rage in the palace, disaster strikes from different foes in quick succession, Voulhire is shaken and the stage is set for a new era.

This book is written from the point of view of different characters, helping readers to get a big and intimate picture of the story. Matthew Tysz keeps the excitement and anticipation level very high. A fine blend of insightful conversations, intriguing plot and brilliant characters, this book makes an enjoyable read. The author does a good job at making these fantasy lands and its people come alive in the pages of these books, by skillfully combining magic, science and fantasy, the author produces a very potent dose of entertainment, enough to keep readers spellbound till the very last word on the very last page and anticipating the next book in this series.

There are so many things I love about this book. I particularly like the plot. I think it has just the right mix of depth and excitement. Spiced with a few surprises here and there, there's just enough suspense to keep readers reading till the end. I also love the author's writing style, the book is quite easy to read and understand, has a good amount of humor and is quite direct. Also I think the nation of Voulhire is a lovely creation that many readers would appreciate, the author really does a good job creating what might go on to be another iconic fictional nation. Just like the fictional Camelot, readers would love this nation with its struggles, victories, ideologies and misfortunes.

This is a great read no doubt although I think it should be better edited, It also contains some profanity and other inconsequential errors. The author's combination of multiple persons point of views with third person view needs to be better improved on, the idea itself is capable of disconcerting some readers. These notwithstanding has little or no effect on the overall quality of the book.

I rate this book a 3 out of 4 because I think the author has written a very good story and many readers would really enjoy reading it. I had fun reading it and would recommend this book to readers looking for adventure, fun , suspense, excitement, intrigue and an overall good story. I must warn you though, once you begin this adventure, you wouldn't stop until you read all the We are Voulhire series.
