“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....

The third volume in Philip Pullman's multi award-wining His Dark Materials trilogy.

Ruth Wilson is an award-winning actress, best known for her roles in His Dark Materials, Luther, Mrs Wilson and The Affair. She won universal acclaim, and the BAFTA Cymru Award for Best Actress for her portrayal of Mrs Coulter in the BBC adaptation of His Dark Materials.

Ruth Wilson did a fantastic job. Highly recommend it! The interview with Philip Pullman was also another highlight and as a big fan I can’t recommend it enough really!

Absolutely amazing

What a beautiful book and a bittersweet ending. All beautiful things end but that doesn’t make them less beautiful. We we love something or someone. It doesn’t stop because we arnt with them. It only ends when we don’t remember.

What an ending!
