A jovem Lyra se lança numa busca desesperada e enfrenta terríveis obstáculos quando seu amigo Roger desaparece em um universo de fantasias, onde os daemons correm pelas ruas de Oxford e Londres e um redemoinho de poeira misteriosa está por toda parte, tornando possível às crianças conhecerem segredos que os adultos dariam tudo para desvendar. ( )
Pullman's prose is quite lovely and he's obviously put a lot of consideration into his setting and background, the fascinating history of this alternate world and the various creatures populating it. But with under-realized characters to carry the story, even if he had taken us to the end of the plot, we would still be left with an incomplete book. The Golden Compass doesn't quite achieve the majestic poetry of Tolkien's powerful sagas, or the sinewy gravity of Ursula K. Le Guin's Wizard of Earthsea, or the wit of Russell Hoban's fable The Mouse and His Child. But it is still very grand indeed. There is scene after scene of power and beauty (.....) The Golden Compass is long, but it is told simply and draws us on, as one crisis blossoms out of another 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.
