Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials: The Definitive Guide

An illustrated, comprehensive, reader-friendly reference to Pullman's brilliant trilogy—valuable for fans & researchers alike. Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy has swept Britain and is gaining an enormous fanbase in the US, sure to increase with the announcement of the forthcoming major motion picture. Packed with clues to literary imagery and subtle allusions, Frost's encyclopediastyle guide exposes the depths of all three titles—Northern Lights (The Golden Compass), The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass—and includes sections on topics as diverse as daemons, Navajos, storytelling, Oxford, and angels. Not surprisingly, The London National Theatre recently used Elements as a research source for their acclaimed stage production of the trilogy.
