HIS DARK MATERIALS IS NOW AN HBO ORIGINAL SERIES STARRING DAFNE
KEEN, RUTH WILSON, JAMES McAVOY, AND LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA!
The world of Philip Pullman's internationally bestselling His Dark
Materials saga is brought to visual life in book 1 of a three-volume
graphic adaptation of The Golden Compass.
Lyra Belacqua is content to run wild among the scholars of Jordan
College, with her dæmon familiar always by her side. But the arrival of
her fearsome uncle, Lord Asriel, draws her to the heart of a terrible
struggle--a struggle born of Gobblers and stolen children, and a
mysterious substance known as Dust. As she hurtles toward danger in the
cold far North, Lyra never suspects the shocking truth: she alone is
destined to win--or to lose--this more-than-mortal battle.
The stunning full-color art offers both new and returning readers a
chance to experience the story of Lyra, an ordinary girl with an
extraordinary role to play in the fates of multiple worlds, in an
entirely new way.
