The Book of Dust : La Belle Sauvage 1

By Philip Pullman

Eleven-year-old Malcolm Polstead works at his parents’ inn outside Oxford and misses nothing. When the nuns across the river take in a baby named Lyra, Malcolm finds that half the powers in England want her — the Magisterium, a secret intelligence service, and a man with a three-legged hyena for a daemon. Then the flood comes. Set ten years before Northern Lights; the first book of The Book of Dust.
