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

Be prepared for multiple POVs in this one, with Lyra being one of a few main characters to follow. From what I've heard, this is a bit of an adjustment for many readers.
In Book 1, the music that played before each of the three acts of the book made sense and I appreciated it as kind of a bookmark between major segments. This audiobook plays music between each chapter and it can get a little old.
Other than the music, the performance is wonderful. I love that it is narrated by Pullman himself and the voice actors are fantastic. Starting Book 3 tonight!
Amazing story but the music is a bit weird.
