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** by Matthew Tysz is a mesmerizing entry into the fantasy genre, seamlessly combining magic, adventure, and intricate political drama. The story introduces Galen Bray, a young man seeking a fresh start in the kingdom of Voulhire, leaving behind a war-torn land. He inherits a blacksmithing business from his great uncle, thrusting him into a world of opportunity and mystery. Tysz expertly weaves together multiple storylines, including the ominous presence of the powerful mage, Lord Meldorath, and the political intrigue within King Wilhelm's court.
One of the standout features of the novel is its detailed world-building. Voulhire feels alive, from its bustling cities to its mystical realms, such as the enchanting dimension of Caromentis. Tysz’s vivid descriptions bring every corner of this kingdom to life, immersing readers in a fully realized fantasy universe. The pacing, while initially slow, carefully lays the groundwork for future installments, building suspense and anticipation. The characters are relatable, particularly Galen, whose journey of self-discovery and growth keeps readers invested in his fate.
What truly elevates this novel is its flawless execution. The author’s decision to incorporate multiple perspectives adds depth to the story, allowing readers to see the broader scope of Voulhire’s struggles. Additionally, the presence of a glossary enhances the reader's understanding of the intricate world Tysz has created. The book is impeccably edited, with no noticeable errors, which further enhances the reading experience.
While the story contains moments of graphic violence and themes that may be unsettling for some, such as mentions of pedophilia, these elements are handled with care and contribute to the tension and complexity of the plot. Tysz’s writing is both engaging and captivating, making this novel an absolute must-read for fans of fantasy fiction.
For its masterful world-building, compelling characters, and flawless narrative structure, We Are Voulhire: A New Arrival Under Great Skies earns a perfect 5 out of 5 stars. This novel sets the stage for an epic series and leaves readers eagerly anticipating the next chapter in the saga. This book was exceptionally edited, and there's nothing I could dislike about this book.
