However, I do think the Dark Materials series may fall into that genre and I did read that (even though I didn’t care for it), so maybe I have. Can't wait to finish the series. One day on London, a young, scarred girl named Hester Shaw meets with a boy named Tom Natsworthy, an outcast from London, and accompanied by the brave Anti-Traction League, must stop the villainous Valentine and an unfolding plot to destroy the world.
