The intrepid young Lyra has passed through a shimmering portal in the sky and finds herself in a beautiful, haunted otherworld -- cittagazze, where soul-eating Specters stalk the streets and wingbeats of distant angels sound against the sky. But she is not without allies: twelve-year-old Will Parry, fleeing for his life after taking another's, has also stumbled into this strange new realm.
On a perilous jouney from world to world, Lyra and Will uncover a deadly secret: an object of extraordinary and devastating power. With every step, they move closer to an even greater threat -- and the shattering truth of their own destiny.
This is book 2 of the His Dark Materials series. I found it quite dull and had to keep talking myself into reading it which is a very rare thing for me.
