Book Reviews of The Golden Compass, Deluxe 10th Anniversary Edition (His Dark Materials, Book 1)(Rough-cut)

Book Review: Fantasy, drama, mystery, soon-to-be classic, adventure!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Lyra Belacqua, a precocious adolescent of unknown background, lives in the care of the scholars at Jordan College of Oxford University. The time period is ambiguous and could be the distant past as easily as the future. Spunky and strong in character, Lyra discovers secrets about her own identity as she becomes involved in uncovering the hideous, clandestine research of misguided scientists. The adventure leads Lyra to the Artic regions where the intrigue is resolved. This is the first volume of a series which leaves the readers anxiously waiting for more. Highly recommended!
