If you enjoyed reading A New Arrival under Great Skies and The Fires of Virko you will also enjoy the third part of this amazing story. Namely, the saga continues and this time Matthew Tysz takes us to the capital of this magical land. We are Voulhire: Someone Else's End describes a new city, a city where people live much differently, a city full of prosperity and hardworking people.

Galen, Demetrius, and Rowan continue their adventure by heading to Soulhire, the capital of Voulhire to tell the King what it was that happened while staying in Virko. This time trio relies on Rowan and his family to help them make the conversation with the King possible. Given that Rowan is from a wealthy family of doctors trio was allowed to enter the ongoing trial concerning refugees from the Land of the Princess. But during the trial, there is a distraction and this story took a completely unexpected turn.

While reading the third part of this great saga what I liked the most was that the characters are in the foreground. As dynamic and exciting as the story that accompanies them is, the emphasis is still on developing and further getting to know the characters. This amazing story gained insights from even different perspectives, which further complements the content and allows the reader to get better acquainted with the characters, their history, and the way they make decisions. Another thing I liked is that the author at the beginning of the book provides access to his site. The site contains a retrospective of everything we had the opportunity to read in the first two parts. In this way, the reader can look back at what they already read at any time in case they missed something or simply do not remember.

I would rate this book with 4 out of 4 stars. What I disliked the most was that I think this part was a little shorter than the others. Although Matthew Tysz paid attention to the description and wonderful evocation of this city as well as to the development of events, this part may have lacked a small overview of some historical elements of this new city.

The book contains less vulgar words than the first two parts and that is why I could recommend this part to a slightly younger audience - teenagers. I didn't notice any mistakes while reading, so I would say that the book is well written. I look forward to the next part of this fantastic book.
