Description:   About the Book In this third and final volume to his series, Pullman brings new characters to join those from the previous books in this conclusion to the cliff-hangers and mysteries of His Dark Materials, as the haunting power of Dr. Malone's amber spyglass is revealed. Book Synopsis #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "BREATHTAKING."-- The Boston Globe - An Entertainment Weekly All-Time Greatest Novel - A Newsweek Top 100 Book of All Time - Winner of the Costa Award and the British Book Award - A Kirkus Reviews Best Young Adult Book of the Century - The Inspiration for the HBO Original Series His Dark Materials DON'T MISS THE EPIC FINALE TO LYRA'S STORY: THE ROSE FIELD, AVAILABLE NOW! The astonishing conclusion to the trilogy that began with the modern fantasy classic The Golden Compass. "War, politics, magic, science, individual lives and cosmic destinies are all here.. assembled into a narrative of tremendous pace by a man with a generous, precise intelligence."-- The New York Times Book Review Throughout the worlds, the forces of both heaven and hell are mustering to take part in Lord Asriel's audacious rebellion. Each player in this epic drama has a role to play--and a sacrifice to make. Witches, angels, spies, assassins, tempters, and pretenders--no one will remain unscathed. Lyra and Will have the most dangerous task of all. They must journey to a gray-lit world where no living soul has ever gone and from which there is no escape. As war rages and Dust drains from the sky, the fate of the living--and the dead--comes to depend on Lyra and Will. On the choices they make in love, and for love, forevermore. 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 Review Quotes "The book rollicks and careers with the narrative gale force we've come to expect. Philip Pullman achieves effects that rival the best accomplishments of the earlier books. In any given chapter Pullman offers more sensuous description and narrative brio than are found in most entire novels." --Starred review in The Horn Book About the Author Philip Pullman is one of the most acclaimed writers working today. He is best known for the His Dark Materials trilogy ( The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass ), which has been named one of the top 100 novels of all time by Newsweek and one of the all-time greatest novels by Entertainment Weekly.
