Sweet little child.Graceful because what she liked best was clambering over the College roofs with Roger, the kitchen boy who was her particular friend, to spit plum stones on the heads of passing Scholars or to hoot like owls outside a window where a tutorial was going on, or racing through the narrow streets, or stealing apples from the market, or waging war.And civilised because last year Lyra and some townies had made a temporary truce and raided the claybeds, pelting the brickburners’ children with lumps of heavy clay and tipping over the soggy castle they’d built, before rolling them over and over in the clinging substance they lived by until victors and vanquished alike resembled a flock of shrieking golems.And this girl with her daemon goes on a journey which they knows nothing about, with people they never met, for causes they don't understand.You have no reason not to read this book. No reason at all!𝙼𝚢 𝚑𝚎𝚊𝚛𝚝 𝚕𝚒𝚝𝚎𝚛𝚊𝚕𝚕𝚢 𝚊𝚌𝚑𝚎𝚍 𝚊𝚝 𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎 𝚙𝚘𝚒𝚗𝚝𝚜. 𝙻𝚒𝚔𝚎 𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚘𝚗𝚎 𝚔𝚎𝚙𝚝 𝚖𝚢 𝚠𝚑𝚘𝚕𝚎 𝚃𝙱𝚁 𝚙𝚒𝚕𝚎 𝚘𝚗 𝚖𝚢 𝚌𝚑𝚎𝚜𝚝 𝚠𝚑𝚒𝚕𝚎 𝙸 𝚠𝚊𝚜 𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚍𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚒𝚝. 𝚃𝚑𝚒𝚜 𝚋𝚘𝚘𝚔 𝚝𝚊𝚞𝚐𝚑𝚝 𝚖𝚎 𝚖𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝚘𝚏 𝚕𝚘𝚟𝚎.

but its a fun read with a good mystery to get hooked on
Only on book two, but its a fun read with a good mystery to get hooked on. Sometimes I do feel like the author denies you too much information. Nevertheless, it is well told and enjoyable. A worthy purchase.

Good read and collection worthy version.
Absolutely lovely book. The book cover and printing is good. Font is little small , but page quality is good. Gives feeling of a classic with its hardcover and book cover designs. Absolutely collection worthy.

Love this book!
reading this book is a fantastic journey, the concept is quite different and exhilarating. i wont say much but if you are a fiction lover and looking for an adventure through a eyes of a child (but its for all ages as the story is quite complex), then go for it.

Very gripping
A wonderful tale, narrated with immense passion and vivacity as well as vividness. It is gripping till the last word in the trilogy. Could not put it down. Also, the style of writing is very classy. I just wish i had got to know how the lives of Lyra and Will and Mary Malone turned out to be like after this story...

Beautiful boxed trilogy
Very nice boxed set of the Dark Materials trilogy. Bought for teenager and did not disappoint and he’s currently reading the second book (had to read the golden compass for school assignment) after enjoying the first story. Recommended

A beautiful edition
A brief review of the Everyman edition of the first three books in the His Dark Materials books by Philip Pullman. This is not a review of the actual three books/novels, starting with with Northern Lights, all of which are worthy and deserving of five stars each. Subsequent to this release by Everyman, Pullman has, as of March 2022, published two further full length novels in this series - a prequel (in which Lyra is just a small child) and a long awaited sequel in which Lyra is now a young woman and a scholar studying at Jordan College, where Northern Lights begins.For readers wishing for a delightful and portable hardback edition of the first three novels in the series, this is the edition to buy. The original hardback anthology is terribly expernsive and difficult to find. Unusually, Everyman have not put a picture of Pullman on the front cover of the book but chosen a theme from the books which is both charming and appropriate. The only other hardback edition of the three books has been the three volumes which were issued by the Folio Society which which were rather mediocre in their illustrations (in the humble opinion of the reviewer here) and were the slightly censored American editions which removed some of the mildly racy passages which talked about the heroine, Lyra's ripening and blossoming sexuality.In short a lovely edition, reasonably priced, and fantasy writing of the very best kind. If you haven't read these books, forget about Harry Potter, and treat yourself to this lovely edition. I bought this as a gift for a friend who wanted a portable yet attractive, ideally hardback edition of novels I had long recomm need he read. I don't think he was disappointed by the content and was very grateful to have this lovely edition. As always, a classic, beautiful and stylish edition of three important modern novels presented by Everyman.

Tal cual lo que buscaba
Es un estuche con los tres libros por separado y en tamaño de bolsillo. La edición es muy bonita y podré disfrutarlos con tranquilidad. La letra se lee sin ningún problema. La saga la estoy empezando tras ver las dos primeras temporadas de la serie, pero ya desde el inicio se puede ver una gran calidad de escritura.

Excelente qualidade
Papel de boa qualidade, livro de material mole, o que faz com que ele não estrague nem solte páginas durante a leitura. Vale muito a pena! Quem dera todos os paperback fossem desse material...
