Ooo, well done Pullman!

The BBC wrote:The His Dark Materials trilogy revolves around the story of a young girl, Lyra, who travels to the far north to save her best friend.

Along the way, she encounters shape-shifting creatures, witches and a variety of other-worldly characters in parallel universes.
