Though ostensibly written for children, this heroic and heart-wrenching His Dark Materials trilogy is beloved by readers of all ages. These three novels unlock the door to parallel universes where demons and winged creatures live side by side with humans, and a mysterious entity called Dust just might have the power to unite the universes—if it isn't destroyed first. Lyra, Pantalaimon, Will, and the rest embark on the most breathtaking, heartbreaking adventure of their lives. The fate of the universe is in their hands.
Young Lyra Belacqua is a precocious orphan growing up within the precincts of Oxford University. Lyra's Oxford is not precisely like others' Oxford—nor is her world. Her parallel universe, is a world in which science, theology, and magic intricately intermingle.
