Graphic Novel: “The story’s signature fantasies—the dæmons,
the armored mercenary polar bears, and the alethiometer—are realized
with compelling force. [This] retelling will bring Pullman’s work
new fans and give previous readers new pleasure.” —Publishers
Weekly, starred review “Belongs in all libraries that include
Pullman’s works.” —School Library Journal “Pullman’s
original magnum opus is heady and dense, and it may prove challenging
for some; this adaptation, with its visual accessibility, can help
those struggling with the novel’s complexity achieve an
understanding without watering down the intricacies.” —Kirkus
