The golden compass : the graphic novel. Vol. 1 Philip Pullman ; adapted by Stéphane Melchior-Durand ; art by Clément Oubrerie ; coloring by Clément Oubrerie with Philippe Bruno ; translated by Annie Eaton.
"In the first of a three-volume graphic novel adaptation, Lyra Belacqua and her daemon familiar set out to prevent her best friend and other kidnapped children from becoming the subject of gruesome experiments in the Far North"--Provided by publisher.
Lyra Belacqua is content to run wild among the scholars of Jordan College, with her dæmon familiar always by her side. But the arrival of her fearsome uncle, Lord Asriel, draws her to the heart of a terrible struggle -- a struggle born of Gobblers and stolen children, and a mysterious substance known as Dust. As she hurtles toward danger in the cold far North, Lyra never suspects the shocking truth: she alone is destined to win -- or to lose -- this more-than-mortal battle.
