The Golden Compass, 20th Anniversary Edition (His Dark Materials)

***** THE BOOK OF DUST,Â the long-awaited new novel from Philip Pullman set in the world of His Dark Materials, is here at last andÂ has been hailed by the New York Times as "A stunning achievement"*****

The modern fantasy classic that Entertainment Weekly named an â€œAll-Time Greatest Novelâ€ and Newsweek hailed as a â€œTop 100 Book of All Timeâ€ is now available in a slipcased hardcover edition that includes a conversation with Lev Grossman, bestselling author of the Magicians trilogy. Fans, collectors, and new readers alike will appreciate this beautiful book that has been changing worlds for twenty years.

Lyra is rushing to the cold, far North, where witch clans and armored bears rule. North, where the Gobblers take the children they steal--including her friend Roger. North, where her fearsome uncle Asriel is trying to build a bridge to a parallel world.

Can one small girl make a difference in such great and terrible endeavors? This is Lyra: a savage, a schemer, a liar, and as fierce and true a champion as Roger or Asriel could want.

But what Lyra doesn't know is that to help on of them will be to betray the other...

A masterwork of storytelling and suspense, Philip Pullman's award-winning The Golden Compass is the first in the His Dark Materials series, which contintues with The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass.

This edition includes:
* A gorgeous slipcase and new jacket art.
* A conversation between Philip Pullman and Lev Grossman, author of the Magicians trilogy, that covers the scope and tradition of fantasy literature, Pullman's influences, and the impact that the entire His Dark Materials series has had since publication.
* A letter from Philip Pullman to fans, marking the book's twentieth anniversary.
