An astonishing imaginative feat - Pullman

has conjured a universe of intensity and beauty that leaves one

gasping The Times

Only Rankin can light and photograph faces with

such intensity and drama. I’m delighted with this vision of my

story. Philip Pullman

The third volume in the ground-breaking His Dark Materials

trilogy, now with a breath-taking new cover

creatively directed and photographed by the legendary Rankin.

We’re going to the land of the dead and we’re going

to come back.

Will and Lyra, whose fates are bound together by powers beyond

their own worlds, have been violently separated.

But they must find each other, for ahead of them lies the greatest

war that has ever been - and a journey to a dark place

from which no one has ever returned…

Rankin’s lens has exquisitely captured the bond between

character and daemon; the soul of the stories

The His Dark Materials trilogy is award-winning, internationally

bestselling and a modern classic.

Now a major BBC/HBO television series, with an all-star cast

of Ruth Wilson, James McAvoy, Anne-Marie Duff and Lin-Manuel Miranda
