The Book of Dust: The Secret Commonwealth

by Philip Pullman

Now studying at St Sophia’s College, Lyra is growing up—and growing apart from her daemon, Pantalaimon.

As Lyra begins to question her beliefs, Pan longs for the closeness they once shared. But when a shocking act shatters the peace of Oxford, their bond is pushed to breaking point, leading them into a hidden, perilous world they never imagined. (Book 2)
