I enjoyed reading this work! As the first in the We Are Voulhire series, it lays a firm foundation for a riveting narration in a new, seemingly peaceful world. Seemingly because when there is light, darkness isn't far behind and while Galen escaped the horrible nighty nights, there were forces under the great skies he wouldn't escape from. Congrats on the BOTD!

I was intrigued by the author’s detailed description of surroundings and fell more into Galen’s journey after reading the sample of the book. Your review helped give me more insight of what the book will provide, especially Galen’s story. Thank you for an honest review.

I read this so many times because I wasn't getting the team of the story. Galen's character is very intriguing. And since fatancy is my interest, I can't escape this one. Good review.

This is how a review should be, its not too revealing about the plot, story and characters but gives you enough to generate interest in the book. It tells you about the genres, that makes it easy for readers to make their choice.

The series started off with a bang thanks to this book! When I read this book, I loved watching Galen discover more about his uncle and the profession he excelled in. Rowan was a charming and fun character. The way the settings and magic tricks were presented was excellent. Although dispersed, the denouements are strong enough to make you want to read the next chapter. Congrats on botd!

A good fantasy book is always a welcome read. This book seems to have every element of that with suspense maintained throughout the review. That is commendable. Congratulations on BOTD.

When i started reading this book i had no idea it was as interesting. I enjoyed reading the contrast between the new world and all the new things that Galen encountered in the new country. I also enjoyed the mages and the soldiers in this new country. I loved every aspect of voulhire. Congratulations to BOTD!

A fantasy book that has an expansive world view sounds exciting. Themes such as nationalism in the book intrigue me. This book sounds wonderful so congratulations on BOTD.

I have read this book's first few chapters, and it has already captivated my interest. Although I am not a big fan of fantasy the different plots in the book are intriguing. The review done on the book was well written and provided a good insight into what to expect.

I love a book that entertains and addresses serious issues at the same time. We are Voulhire: A New Arrival under The Great Skies definitely does that.
