"People will love the first volume of Philip Pullman's new trilogy with the same helpless vehemence that stole over them when The Golden Compass came out."--Slate
"It's a stunning achievement, this universe Pullman has created and continues to build on."--The New York Times
Malcolm Polstead is the kind of boy who notices everything, and the things he sees trouble him deeply. Enforcement agents from the Magisterium appear in his family's inn. The explorer Lord Asriel has a precious secret to hide. A gyptian named Coram warns him of a coming flood. A criminal and a beautiful woman, both with disturbing daemons, ask about the same thing--a child, just a baby, named Lyra.
Lyra is the kind of person who draws people in like magnets. Malcolm sees that she is at the center of a great and powerful storm. And he will brave any danger, and make shocking sacrifices, to see her safely home.
Look for the entire trilogy of THE BOOK OF DUST:
La Belle Sauvage * The Secret Commonwealth * The Rose Field
And Lyra's adventures begin in HIS DARK MATERIALS:
The Golden Compass * The Subtle Knife * The Amber Spyglass
