This graphic novel adaptation of The Subtle Knife is a great entry
for readers new to His Dark Materials and an exciting new look at the
classic for existing Pullman fans.
Philip Pullman's world is brought to visual life in The Subtle Knife
Graphic Novel, a companion to the successful The Golden Compass Graphic
Novel. The stunning full-color art will offer 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.
In The Subtle Knife, Lyra meets Will--a boy on the run, a murderer--a
worthy and welcome ally. For this is a world where soul-eating Specters
stalk the streets and witches share the skies with troops of angels.
Each is searching--Lyra for the meaning of Dark Matter, Will for his
missing father--but what they find instead is a deadly secret, a knife
of untold power. And neither Lyra nor Will suspects how tightly their
lives, their loves, their destinies are bound together...until they are
split apart.
