Northern Lights By Phillip Pullman AkA the dark materials

Northern lights is the awarding winning book by Phillip Pullman. The Amazing Film ' The Golden Compass' was base on this master piece.As always the book is better then the film. The book bring more detail and adventure that the film left out. If like me you loved the the film you'll adore the book :D It's part of the Dark Materials Trilogy followed by The subtle Knife and The golden spy-glass.all three are fanatastic and i would recconmend them to people who like adventures and secrets.

Blurb-Northern Lights
When Lyra's friend Roger disappears, she and her dæmon, Pantalaimon, determine to find him. The ensuing quest leads them to the bleak splendor of the north, where armored bears rule the ice and with-queens fly through the frozen skies- and where a team of scientists is conducting experiments too horrible to be spoken about.
Lyra over comes these terrors only to find something yet more perilous waiting for her- something with consequences which may even reach beyond the Northern Lights...

Blurb- The Subtle Knife
Will is twelve years old and he's just killed a man. Now he's on his own, on the run, determined to discover the truth about his father's disappearance.
Then Will steps through a window in the air into another world, and finds himself with a companion- a strange savage little girl called Lyra. Like Will, she has a mission which she intends to carry out at all costs.
But the world of Cittàgzze is a strange and unsettling place. Deadly, soul-eating Spectres stalk its streets, while high above, the wing beats of distant angels sound against the sky. And in the mysterious Torre degli Angeli lurks Cittàgazze's most important secret- an object which people from many worlds would kill to possess.

Blurb- The Amber Spyglass
Will is the bearer of the knife. Now accompanied by angels, his task is to deliver that powerful, dangerous weapon to Lord Asriel- by the command of his dying father.
But how can he go looking for Lord Asriel, when Lyra is gone? Only with her help can he fathom the myriad plots and intrigues that beset him. The two great powers of the many worlds are lining up for war, and Will must find Lyra, for together they are on their way to battle, an inevitable journey that will even take them to the world of the dead...
