(2) 4-6 Book of Dust series. This prequel to the His Dark Materials trilogy finds infant Lyra in the care of eleven-year-old Malcolm, an appealingly sturdy hero. Malcolm, accomplice Alice, and the baby make their way to hoped-for safety through flooded Oxford. Although set a decade before The Golden Compass, readers should start there--a good deal of this entry's pleasure comes from familiarity with the world's conventions and characters.
