Northern Lights: His Dark Materials 1

I just found the most beautiful edition of His Dark Materials books. They are wonderful.I’m not reviewing the story or writing itself, only the product that I had bought. Those who have read this masterpiece know how much it’s worth. Those who haven’t, I strongly advise you do. It has this beautiful dust jacket showing the Alethiometer. Hardback blue. The letters have a very decent size, same for the space between lines. And at the end of the book there’s an Appendix showing some curious papers from the Library at Jordan College. I had never seen that before in other editions! It’s a clever addition to the story.The editions of The Subtle Knife and The Amber Spyglass have similar curiosities in its Appendix too. If you buy this edition of Northern Lights, you have to buy the other books in the same edition. I’m adding pictures to this review so you can see how amazing they are.Those books are for every age. It's the fourth time I'm reading them, and each time I understand something new.

this is a very good book. my son enjoys it very much and it seems very interesting

Comprei para meu filho, adorou.

His Dark Materials trilogy is probably the most socially relevant fantasy series for young adults, considering how badly organized religion is currently affecting the world, & especially India.This first book however isn't as iconoclastic as books 2 & 3- but is satisfied in being a splendid adventure set in a parallel universe- with bits of steampunk elements thrown in.Now, as for this particular EDITION here, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the "Alethiometer" on the cover is drawn in BLUE GLITTER <3.Print & Page quality is great as well, making this 20th Anniversary Edition truly one worth collecting!

The book in a good qulity.It's a great book to read.
