With the 1996 release of The Golden Compass, author Philip Pullman unlocked the door to worlds parallel to our own: dæmons and winged creatures living side by side with humans, and a mysterious entity called Dust that just might have the power to unite the universes--if it isn't destroyed first. Followed by the acclaimed The Subtle Knife and The Amber Spyglass, the trilogy is a genre-transcending masterpiece that appeals to children and adults alike. With the December 2007 release of the major motion picture based on The Golden Compass, now is the perfect time to discover--or return to--the magic of His Dark Materials. 1996年出版的The Golden Compass帶領我們進入惡魔與飛行生物的世界，以及一種足以一統全宇宙的物質：星塵。這本三部曲中的第一集，將令同學進入另一個魔幻世界，隨着本年12月發行的同名電影版推出，The Golden Compass將成為魔戒後的新一代魔幻經典。
