The Golden Compass
05:42  - 3 years ago
THE GOLDEN COMPASS is an amateur production of the first book in Philip Pullman's award-winning literature trilogy HIS DARK MATERIALS. From the publisher Random House: "THE GOLDEN COMPASS forms the first part of a story in three volumes. The first volume is set in a world like ours, but different in many ways. The second volume is set partly in the world we know. The third moves between many worlds. In THE GOLDEN COMPASS, readers meet for the first time 11-year-old Lyra Belacqua, a precocious orphan growing up within the precincts of Jordan College in Oxford, England. It quickly becomes clear that Lyra's Oxford is not precisely like our own - nor is her world. In Lyra's world, everyone has a personal dæmon, a lifelong animal familiar. This is a world in which science, theology and magic are closely intertwined."
