“Absorbing . . Like Harry Potter creator J. K. Rowling,
[Pullman] invents a world filled with strange divinations and
wordplays.”
–Newsweek
“A LITERARY MASTERPIECE . . . [that] caps the most magnificent
fantasy series since The Lord of the Rings and puts Harry Potter to
shame. . . . A page-turning story that builds to a
Lyra and Will, the two ordinary children whose extraordinary
adventures began in The Golden Compass and continued in The Subtle
Knife, are in unspeakable danger. With help from the armored bear
Iorek Byrnison and two tiny Gallivespian spies, they must journey
to a gray-lit world where no living soul has ever gone. All the
while, Dr. Mary Malone builds a maagnificent amber spyglass. An
assassin hunts her down. And Lord Asriel, with troops of shining
angels, fights his mighty rebellion, a battle of strange allies—and
shocking sacrifices.
As war rages and Dust drains from the sky, the fate of the
living—and the dead—finally comes to depend on two children and the
simple truth of one simple story. The Amber Spyglass reveals that
story, bringing Philip Pullman''s His Dar Materials to an
astonishing conclusion.
