[Following is a volunteer review of "We are Voulhire: A New Arrival under Great Skies" by Matthew Tysz.]
In the Land of the Princes, survival boiled down to facing the sword's edge or succumbing to a protracted famine. This reflection from Galen Bray succinctly encapsulates the dire circumstances in his native land. When presented with an opportunity to transition to a different realm and assume control of his uncle's property, Galen embraced it willingly.
After a lengthy sea voyage, he encountered Rowan, his uncle's executor, at an inn in Magnum Caelum, marking the end of Rowan's perilous six-month quest to locate him. Voulhire, a realm seemingly mundane harbors individuals with extraordinary abilities, hinting at impending transformations.
Midius Maido, the eminent High Chancellor of the Mianoran Council, raises questions about the origins and extent of his influence by Matthew Tysz, We Are Voulhire: A New Arrival Under Great Skies ventures into the realm of fantasy, illustrating the costly nature of hope and the profound significance of seizing an opportunity for meaningful achievement. The narrative unfolds through the perspectives of Galen Bray from first- and third-person points of view.
A compelling narrative that not only introduces readers to novel settings and characters but also instills a sense of familiarity that transcends mere storytelling. Matthew exceeds this benchmark, providing a thorough understanding of Voulhire's underlying dynamics and delving into the characters' motivations. Observing Galen's journey reveals the impact of external forces on unforeseen changes. Moreover, the story intertwines unexpected twists that reshape its trajectory, culminating in a remarkably surprising and gratifying conclusion.
Beyond its entertainment value, the book prompts contemplation on significant issues. What constitutes unification? How much is necessary for the realization of nationalism? Where does the line blur, and what befalls dissenting voices? Through these revelations, the author skillfully alters perspectives on certain characters, challenging the dichotomy of good and bad. If you appreciate stories infused with satire that provoke thoughtful reflection, "We Are Voulhire: A New Arrival Under Great Skies" is a must-read.
My rating for this captivating book is 5 out of 5 stars, and I found no aspects to dislike. The book's gripping nature, as evidenced by my difficulty putting it down, attests to its compelling narrative. It will undoubtedly resonate with fantasy enthusiasts and is suitable for readers aged fifteen and above. I found no errors, showing how well-edited it is.
