Summary |
Lyra Belacqua is content to run wild among the scholars of Jordan College with her daemon at her side. But the arrival of her fearsome uncle, Lord Asriel, draws her to the heart of a terrible stuggle - a struggle born of Boggler and stolen children, witch clans and armored bears. And as she hurtles toward danger in the cold far North, Lyra never suspects the shocking truth: she alone is destined to win, or to lose, this more than mortal battle. |
