Review of We are Voulhire: A New Arrival under Great Skies
[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, written by Matthew Tysz. The rich cities that make up Voulhire are numerous. Every city differs from the others in that it has unique characteristics and a distinct mode of trade. It opens with a scene in which a strongman by the name of Meldorath exposes the wrongdoings of a lord in a poor village. However, the king of Voulhire soon betrays him. As the story progresses, further details are revealed, along with the allegation that Meldorath was actually a terrible man rather than a hero before he died. Galen, who only recently escaped from a war-torn nation known as The Lands of the Princes, is another character we get to meet. He starts to appreciate the individuals he considers to be his heroes and learns how to live simply. The nation of Voulhire is experiencing its golden era, but a lengthy foe is hiding in the shadows, quietly building up their power.
The way that each character's positive and negative qualities are described is its most appealing feature. Matthew has described each character so well and so authentically that you will believe they are genuine. The author is a very accomplished writer. Everything is described in great depth, making it easy to visualize the people and settings. I enjoyed Galen's wonder and delight at the prospect of learning new things. The reader is hooked by the interesting world he portrays. Both the glossary at the conclusion and the map of Voulhire at the start of the book were really helpful. Both of them made it easier to comprehend the plot.
There was nothing that I disliked about the book; it was well-written and intriguing to read. From Galen's first-person perspective to the other characters' third-person perspectives, the author's unique writing style easily transitions. That effectively improves the narrative. Its language also piqued my interest because it is vivacious, simple to understand, and excellent at conjuring mental images. Rowan was funnier; he was a person who made a fantastic friend for Galen Bray, so I liked him a lot better. The way the author described each scene in the novel is the book's strongest point. The author's ability to make us feel as though we were part of the story the entire time was astounding.
I am rating this book, We are Voulhire: A New Arrival under Great Skies, 5 out of 5 stars because it was well-structured and entertaining. There were no grammatical errors or mistakes in it. Therefore, it was exceptionally well edited.
I would recommend this book to anyone who loves good fiction and to lovers of the fantasy genre.
