Reviews«Muy pocas cosas en nuestro mundo valen una espera de diecisiete años: el Libro del Polvo es una de ellas». --The Washington Post «El libro está lleno de maravillas. . . . Realmente emocionante». -The New York Times «20 años después retoma la historia desde otro punto de vista y nos propone una turbadora metáfora del diluvio universal.» Cultura s, La Vanguardia «Pullman, uno de los autores vivos más importantes del Reino Unido, regresa al mundo de su cautivador personaje Lyra con la nueva trilogía El Libro de la Oscuridad.» EFE « La bella salvaje es una excursión emocionante y estimulante en territorio de La Materia Oscura, pero con una diferencia. [...] puede proporcionar satisfacciones más sutiles que su precursor gloriosamente barroco.» The Times Literary Sumplement (TLS) «La espera ha valido la pena.» The Guardian

SynopsisPhilip Pullman regresa al mundo paralelo de His Dark Materials, ahora una serie original de HBO protagonizada por Dafne Keen, Ruth Wilson, Andrew Scott y Lin-Manuel Miranda, para ampliar la historia de Lyra, "una de las heroínas más imborrables de la fantasía. "(Revista The New York Times). No te pierdas la segunda entrega de El libro de la oscuridad: La comunidad secreta . Malcolm Polstead, un joven adolescente de once años, y su daimonion Asta viven con sus padres muy cerca de Oxford. Al otro lado del río Támesis (en el que Malcolm navega habitualmente utilizando su amada canoa, un bote con el nombre de La Bella Salvaje) está la abadía de Godstow, habitada por las monjas de la región. Malcolm descubrirá que ellas tienen un huésped muy especial, una niña con el nombre de Lyra Belacqua... ENGLISH DESCRIPTION NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Philip Pullman returns to the parallel world of His Dark Materials--now an HBO original series starring Dafne Keen, Ruth Wilson, Andrew Scott, and Lin-Manuel Miranda--to expand on the story of Lyra, "one of fantasy's most indelible heroines" ( The New York Times Magazine ). Don't miss Volume II of The Book of Dust: The Secret Commonwealth ! Malcolm Polstead and his daemon, Asta, are used to overhearing news and the occasional scandal at the inn run by his family. But during a winter of unceasing rain, Malcolm finds a mysterious object--and finds himself in grave danger. Inside the object is a cryptic message about something called Dust; and it's not long before Malcolm is approached by the spy for whom this message was actually intended . When she asks Malcolm to keep his eyes open, he begins to notice suspicious characters everywhere: the explorer Lord Asriel, clearly on the run; enforcement agents from the Magisterium; a gyptian named Coram with warnings just for Malcolm; and a beautiful woman with an evil monkey for a daemon. All are asking about the same thing: a girl--just a baby--named Lyra. Lyra is at the center of a storm, and Malcolm will brave any peril, and make shocking sacrifices, to bring her safely through it., Renowned storyteller Philip Pullman returns to the parallel world of Lyra Belacqua and His Dark Materials for a thrilling and epic adventure in which daemons, alethiometers, and the Magisterium all play a part. The Book of Dust will be a work in three parts, like His Dark Materials (The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, The Amber Spyglass). The title and cover of this first story will remain under wraps until a later date, but it can be revealed that the book is set ten years before The Golden Compass and centers on the much-loved character Lyra and her daemon Pantalaimon.
