One thing I disliked about this book was how long it was. One of my favorite aspects of the story was the daemons and I enjoyed learning about all of the customs and interactions that center around them. I loved that it covered events that happened before His Dark Materials instead of just covering what happens after. I loved the series His Dark Materials and I was thrilled when this book came out. But as he works his way through a terrible flood, he meets several people who are looking for Lyra and who, unlike her father, want only to do her harm. Malcolm is the protector of Lyra Belacqua and is charged to bring her to her father. Daemons take the shape of animals, accompanying their person wherever they go. In the world that Malcolm lives in every person has a daemon which represents their soul. The events of the novel take place before the series His Dark Materials and follow a young boy named Malcolm and his daemon, Asta. La Bella Sauvage is the first book in The Book of Dust series.
