Cover Reveal: La Belle Sauvage by Philip Pullman

Ahh :D The covers for this stunning thing have been revealed! Eee! I'm not sure which one I love the most. Hmm. I love the artwork of the UK one. But I love the writing in the US one. They are both really gorgeous, though. And I cannot wait to own several copies of each edition :D Eee. So so excited. Oh, how I am dying to read this book. Eee. This whole trilogy is going to be SO GOOD :D I loved His Dark Materials to pieces. They are such huge favorites of mine. Sniffs. And getting to read more of this world is the very, very best thing. La Belle Sauvage is the first book in The Book of Dust trilogy. This first one takes place ten years before His Dark Materials. And so Lyra is only a baby in this whole book, but still. I'm so excited to read this one. To get to know Malcolm. And everything else. Book two and three will be about Lyra ten years after the first trilogy, and holy crap, I'm excited. I hope there that Will is going to be included too. Ahh. I worry that Philip will make Lyra love someone else; and I can't imagine that at all. If it happens, it would make the last book meaningless :\ So I hope not. Either way, I'm beyond excited for all three of these books to come :D Just wish they were all out now. Hmph. And wishing I knew when book two will be out as well. Aaack. Hope the wait isn't too long :D Anyway. Super excited about this new book by Philip. Huge fan of this amazing author. Yess. And just, gosh, these covers are perfect. Love them so.

UK Cover & Details.

Malcolm learns they have a guest with them; a baby by the name of Lyra Belacqua . . .
