Publisher Description

HIS DARK MATERIALS IS NOW AN HBO ORIGINAL SERIES STARRING DAFNE KEEN, RUTH WILSON, ANDREW SCOTT, AND LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA!

The spellbinding sequel to The Golden Compass, the modern fantasy classic that Entertainment Weekly named an "All-Time Greatest Novel" and Newsweek hailed as a "Top 100 Book of All Time," continues the epic adventure, catapulting readers between worlds, and toward a devastating discovery.


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.

jonaschafer ,

Nearly identical to HBO

And I say that as a positive. I love the lush, but immediate writing and narrating of Pullman. I listened to this during my 5th marathon and the minutes melted away quickly.

No chapter markers.

I love the book and the reading is good but there are no chapter markers. Just bunch of numbered tracks!

Legendary science fiction

Read by the author ( as he interprets his story). Is a great thing. Of course some might rather listen to their own interpretation as they read. As for religious options; you can interpret it that way if it pleases you. But it’s more about the danger of restricting free agency. Deciding your own mind is essential and not to be encroached nor encroach upon others agency. It’s a brilliant work and a good bedtime story.
