A review by toc
La Belle Sauvage by Philip Pullman
3.0
A fun book. Very reminiscent of The Golden Compass. Which won't come as a surprise because it takes place in Lyra's world. Lyra is even a character throughout most of the book.
And it's a fun world, no doubt. Sort of our same time frame but with enough of a different historical path to make it interesting. And Malcolm is quite the little boy! Smart, honest, hard-working, surprising.
I think you'll enjoy this adventure. I can wait for the next one but will anticipate it. (because you know this is just the first in a trilogy)
And kudos to Mr. Sheen for his excellent voice work and characterization! I'm sure it was immensely more enjoyable because of his effort.
