La Materia Oscura I
«De no ser por esta niña, moriríamos todos.»

Lyra Belacqua y su animal daimonion llevan una vida un tanto salvaje y despreocupada entre los alumnos del Jordan College de Oxford. El destino que la aguarda la conducirá a las heladas tierras del Ártico, donde reinan los clanes de brujas y los osos polares libran virulentas luchas. Su extraordinario viaje tendrá inconmensurables repercusiones mucho más allá de su propio mundo.

«La novela más ambiciosa desde El Señor de los Anillos.» New Statesman

Una obra maestra de la narrativa y del suspense. Esta maravillosa novela de Philip Pullman es la primera entrega de la trilogía de La Materia Oscura, a la que le siguen La daga y El catalejo lacado.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

His Dark Materials is now an HBO original series starring Dafne Keen, Ruth Wilson, James Mcavoy, and Lin-Manuel Miranda!

Featuring an exclusive bonus interview between the author, Philip Pullman, and His Dark Materials star Ruth Wilson.

The modern fantasy classic that Entertainment Weekly named an "All-Time Greatest Novel" and Newsweek hailed as a "Top 100 Book of All Time".

Philip Pullman takes listeners to a world where humans have animal familiars and where parallel universes are within reach.

Lyra is rushing to the cold, far North, where witch clans and armored bears rule. North, where the Gobblers take the children they steal - including her friend Roger. North, where her fearsome uncle Asriel is trying to build a bridge to a parallel world.

Can one small girl make a difference in such great and terrible endeavors? This is Lyra: a savage, a schemer, a liar, and as fierce and true a champion as Roger or Asriel could want.
But what Lyra doesn't know is that to help one of them will be to betray the other....

A masterwork of storytelling and suspense, Philip Pullman's award-winning The Golden Compass is the first in the His Dark Materials series, which continues with The Subtle Knife and The Amber Spyglass.
