His heroine, Lyra, is an orphan living in a parallel universe in which science, theology, and magic are entwined. The epic story that takes us through the three novels is not only a spellbinding adventure featuring armored polar bears, magical devices, witches, and daemons, it is also an audacious and profound reimagining of Milton's Paradise Lost that has already inspired a number of serious books of literary criticism. Like J. R. R. Tolkien and C. S. Lewis before him, Pullman has invented a richly detailed and marvelously imagined world, complex and thought-provoking enough to enthrall adults as well as younger readers. An utterly entrancing blend of metaphysical speculation and bravura storytelling, His Dark Materials is a monumental and enduring achievement. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eDon't miss Philip Pullman's epic new trilogy set in the world of His Dark Materials!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e** THE BOOK OF DUST **\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eLa Belle Sauvage\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Secret Commonwealth\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.
