The Amber Spyglass
by Philip Pullman (Author)
Lyra and Will are in unspeakable danger. With help from the armoured bear Iorek Byrnison and two tiny Gallivespian spies, they must journey to a gray-lit world where no living soul has ever dared to venture before. Meanwhile, Dr. Mary Malone is building a magnificent amber spyglass when an assassin hunts her down. And Lord Asriel, with troops of shining angels, fights his mighty rebellion, a battle of strange allies - and shocking sacrifices.
As war rages and Dust drains from the sky, the fate of the living - and the dead - finally comes to depend on two children and the truth behind one simple story.
