His Dark Materials

His Dark Materials is an epic fantasy trilogy written by Phillip Pullman, which follows the adventures of a young girl across multiple alternate worlds, as she struggles to liberate her own world from the rule of an all-powerful and oppressive church. The Magisterium, as the ruling church is called, is a thinly-veiled caricature of the Roman Catholic Church which controls most of the world and seeks to dominate all others. The movie preview trailer for The Golden Compass, the first installment of the trilogy, is now online.
