We fast forward 20 years to find Lara now in Oxford, the bond with her daemon is broken and she is drawn into a complex world which takes her across Europe and into Asia to search for a haunted city, a secret at the heart of the desert and the mystery of Dust. Be warned, it ends on a cliffhanger. Now we must wait for volume three. If you've never read Pullman his Dark Materials books might be the perfect answer to lock-down.
