Only thing I have heard is that the Voyage appears sharper if compared side by side with the PW3. That doesn't mean that it is unuseable (on the PW1 the smallest font sizes are all unuseable, IMO).
Bookerly is about the same thickness as Baskerville, but more even overall. Baskerville at smaller size is deffinately much improved on PW3 from PW2. Alas, I can't compare to voyage, since they were never sold in Canada. Either one is a good choice for a stylish font. (Bookerly sacrifices a bit of fancy flair for better readability.)
