A stunning full-colour illustrated gift hardback to celebrate the 25th anniversary of NORTHERN LIGHTS, with breathtaking art throughout by Chris Wormell.

“Without this child, we shall all die.”

Lyra Belacqua and her animal daemon live half-wild and carefree among scholars of Jordan College, Oxford.

The destiny that awaits her will take her to the frozen lands of the Arctic, where witch-clans reign and ice-bears fight.

Her extraordinary journey will have immeasurable consequences far beyond her own world…

  • Now a major HBO/BBC TV series starring Ruth Wilson, James McAvoy, Dafne Keen, Lin-Manuel Miranda.
  • Chris Wormell has illustrated the covers for The Book of Dust: la Belle Sauvage and The Secret Commonwealth.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully illustrated book but still not enough illustration
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2023
Verified Purchase
Having delved into the trilogy and also experienced the audiobooks, I was captivated when I stumbled upon the illustrated editions, sparking a desire to possess a copy for myself. Consequently, I acquired both Volume 1 and Volume 2. However, upon comparing the two books, it became apparent that Volume 2 had significantly fewer illustrations than Volume 1. While the themes and colors in Volume 1 were stunning, and I thoroughly enjoyed it, I couldn't help but feel disappointed with the lack of illustrations in Volume 2. In Volume 1, there were over 20 beautifully crafted illustrations spanning across the pages, whereas Volume 2 contained a mere 5. As a collector who doesn't mind investing in meaningful pieces, it tempted me to consider completing the trilogy by acquiring all three volumes. Despite my admiration for Chris Wormell's efforts in making Volume 1 so exquisitely beautiful, I must admit that his work in Volume 2 did not quite meet the same standard. As of now, I haven't acquired an illustrated copy of Volume 3, and I find myself uncertain whether I will make the purchase in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely GORGEOUS book! MUST HAVE for any The Golden Compass Fans
Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2022
Verified Purchase
I bought this book because The Golden Compass (Northern Lights) is my favorite book of ALL TIME. I have purchased every variation of this book and when I saw this I knew I had to get it. There are 2 different versions of this book as it is known as The Golden Compass from where I'm from (the US) or Northern Lights in other parts of the country.

This book came in PERFECT condition and is absolutely stunning. I am so so so happy with this purchase. If you have never read this book and only saw the movie, PLEASE read the book as the movie does NOT do this book justice at all. I can't say enough great things about this book. One of the best purchases I have made on Amazon. 5 million stars!!!

The media could not be loaded.
 Delivered promptly, with only a bit of creasing to the outside jacket. This book is absolutely beautiful, with the stunning art from Chris Wormell pairing nicely with Pullman’s unique world-building. The only negative of this is that there are 2 more illustrated editions that I have to save up for! Love it all, definitely worth the money 😁

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm an adult and I loved this book
Reviewed in Australia on December 27, 2023
Verified Purchase
I have started reading it to my 8 and 6 year old. My 6 year old gets bits and pieces but it really is for my 8 year old. I really enjoyed the story and I hope my 8 year old will love it as much as me however the very beginning is quite heavy for her age. It will be easier to follow later on.
The pictures are beautiful. But the story, omg, what a book. I'm on to the second book (borrowed from the library) but I think I am more a fan of the first.
