[Following is a volunteer review of "We are Voulhire: A New Arrival under Great Skies" by Matthew Tysz.]
"We are Voulhire: A New Arrival under Great Skies" by Matthew Tysz offers a captivating and delightful fantasy experience that leaves readers thoroughly satisfied. The first book in the series introduces a remarkable realm where both the natural and supernatural worlds coexist harmoniously. A well-crafted map adds depth to this fantastical setting, allowing readers to visualize its intricacies easily. The plot, full of mysteries, promises more revelations in subsequent instalments.
In this powerful kingdom of Voulhire, a golden age awaits, embracing elements of wealth, culture, and technology akin to our own world. Power and revenge take centre stage as characters strive for identity, with Faith, Science, and Magic enticing them with promises of a utopian existence. The narrative cleverly shifts perspectives, making it challenging to pinpoint a central protagonist. The 'supposed' antagonist receives a thorough and intriguing buildup, revealed much later in the story, leading to second thoughts about quick judgments and perceptions of other characters.
The book's concise chapters, each titled with a focus on specific narrators, enhance the reading experience. The author's descriptive language paints a vivid picture, immersing readers and leaving them on the edge of their seats with well-placed cliffhangers. The diverse and complementary personalities of the characters make for a compelling read, and the use of everyday language adds a relatable touch, making the story seem like it unfolds in our own world.
With its innovative world-building, "We are Voulhire: A New Arrival under Great Skies" earns 5 out of 5 stars and promises readers an exciting journey through the series.
