The Book of Dust - La Belle Sauvage

By Philip Pullman

Book Overview

Two young people and their d mons, with everything at stake, find themselves at the center of a terrifying manhunt. In their care is a tiny child called Lyra Belacqua, and in that child lies the fate of the future.

As the waters rise around them, powerful adversaries conspire for mastery of Dust: salvation to some, the source of infinite corruption to others.

Philip Pullman's The Book of Dust - La Belle Sauvage is set twelve years before the epic His Dark Materials trilogy. Bryony Lavery's stage adaptation was first performed at the Bridge Theatre, London, in December 2021, directed by Nicholas Hytner, whose groundbreaking production of His Dark Materials was a critical and commercial success at the National Theatre.

Customer Reviews

Good addition to a great series

I love how this book tied itself in with His Dark Materials while also having a different feel. I also liked the use of characters from the original series as well as original and unique characters not in the original trilogy.

Philip Pullman is a magical man

His stories never disappoint. He teaches and entertains all at once. He takes you on a journey and shows you new paths. I discovered his books 16 years ago and have been obsessed ever since.
