Lyra is rushing to the cold, far North, where witch clans and armored bears rule. North, where the Gobblers take the children they steal—including her friend Roger. North, where her fearsome uncle Asriel is trying to build a bridge to a parallel world. Can one small girl make a difference in such great and terrible endeavors?

All Napoleon Davis wants to do after another long week of working multiple jobs for next to nothing is grab a beer at his regular bar with his roommates.

And what starts off as the act of a "good samaritan" quickly devolves into a fight for life itself.
