DON'T MISS THE EPIC FINALE TO LYRA'S STORY: THE ROSE FIELD, AVAILABLE NOW!

The spellbinding sequel to the modern fantasy classic The Golden Compass.

"The story gallops with ferocious momentum . . . Devilishly inventive."--The New York Times Book Review

Lost in a new world, Lyra finds 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.

Look for the modern fantasy classics of HIS DARK MATERIALS:
The Golden Compass * The Subtle Knife * The Amber Spyglass

And Lyra's adventures continue in THE BOOK OF DUST:
La Belle Sauvage * The Secret Commonwealth * The Rose Field
