Více o knize

Enter the remarkable world of His Dark Materials like never before with this stunning, full-colour graphic novel. Lyra has stepped into a brand-new world, while Will has just killed a man. Their paths cross in Cittàgazze, a city haunted by soul-eating Spectres, troops of angels, and vengeful witches, where they find a welcome ally in each other. Both are on quests: Lyra seeks to understand Dark Matter, and Will desperately searches for his missing father. Instead, they uncover a deadly secret involving an object of extraordinary power. Each step they take draws them closer to an even greater threat and reveals the shattering truth of their own destinies.
