Review :
Review, USA Today (circ: 2, 192,098), November 1, 2007: "The 1996 novel, published for children but widely praised by grown-ups, is set in a British world where everyone has a personal 'daemon, ' the manifestation of his or her soul in animal form ... Pullman ... has seen an early cut of the film without its computer-generated effects and calls it 'rich, strange and wonderful.'" Review, Entertainment Weekly (circ: 1, 830, 769), November 9, 2007: "The polar bear warriors in THE GOLDEN COMPASS ... are just part of the vast fantastical metaverse explored by young Lyra Belacqua in a $150 million adaptation of the first book in Philip Pullman's "His Dark Materials"trilogy." -"Holiday Movie Preview" "Pullman, meanwhile, is handling the controversy gracefully...the British author wagered that the hullabaloo 'will make more people see the film.'" -"News Notes" "As always, Pullman is a master at combining impeccable characterizations and seamless plotting, maintaining a crackling pace to create scene upon scene of almost unbearable tension. This glittering gem will leave readers of all ages eagerly awaiting the next installment of Lyra's adventures."--"Publishers Weekly, Starred" "Extraordinary storytelling at its very best."--"The Detroit Free Press "Superb . . . all-stops-out thrilling."--"The Washington Post
