Synopsis

The second volume in Philip Pullman's incredible HIS DARK MATERIALS
trilogy. First published in 1997, and acclaimed as a modern masterpiece,
it won the UK's top awards for children's literature.

"What is he? A friend, or an enemy?"

"He is a murderer."

Will has just killed a man. He's on the run. His escape will take
him far beyond his own world, to the eerie disquiet of a deserted
city, and to a girl, Lyra. Her fate is strangely linked to his
own, and together they must find the most powerful weapon in all
the worlds...
