Matthew Tysz’s We are Voulhire:An Arrival Under Great Skies it's a captivating start to a fantasy series that merges magic, politics, and personal drama. The novel follows Galen Bray, who leaves his war-ravaged homeland to claim his inheritance in the city of Magnum Caelum, only to find himself in the midst of a complex and dangerous political landscape.

The book shines in its world-building. Tysz creates a vivid and immersive setting in Voulhire, with a rich tapestry of magical and political elements that add depth to the story. The inclusion of a map enhances the reader’s ability to follow the various locations and their significance within the narrative.

Character development is well handled, with Galen’s journey from a troubled past to a new beginning being central to the story. The interactions with other characters, such as the insightful Rowan and the influential Lord Eldus, add complexity and depth to the plot. The character dynamics are engaging and contribute significantly to the narrative’s richness.

Despite its strengths, the novel’s pacing can be sluggish at times. The detailed world-building and the introduction of multiple characters can make the story feel dense, requiring careful attention from the reader. This slower pace might affect the overall flow of the narrative.

The book is professionally edited, with no noticeable errors and a clear, accessible writing style. So therefore, I will rate the book 5 out of 5 stars.While the pacing issues might be a drawback, the book’s detailed world-building and well-developed characters provide a compelling reading experience for readers.

In summary, We are Voulhire: it's a strong start to the series. It is recommended for readers who enjoy intricate fantasy worlds and complex character interactions. The book promises a rich and engaging series, making it a worthwhile read for fans of the genre.
