THE GOLDEN COMPASS



TGIF Everyone! Another week come and gone, meaning another week closer to “the big day” YIKES. I am sad to say that I still have a pretty big dent I need to make in my holiday shopping.
Regardless of the list I still have to check off, I can tell you that I am going to be taking a break this weekend from the mall madness and heading to the local theater to check out THE GOLDEN COMPASS, which releases today.

From imdb.com, “The Golden Compass tells the first story in the "His Dark Materials" trilogy, set in an alternative world where people's souls manifest themselves as animals, talking bears fight wars, and one young girl is at the center of a dimension-crossing odyssey. Lyra (Dakota Blue Richards) is a 12-year-old girl who starts out trying to rescue a friend who's been kidnapped by a mysterious organization known as the Gobblers, but winds up on an epic quest to save not only her world, but ours as well. Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Sam Elliott and Ian McShane headline an all-star cast.”








And now, here comes the really cool part. Here at TKA we are super excited to be a part of the exclusive Anthology released earlier this month by Border’s as a movie tie-in. Two of our fabulous authors, Diana Peterfreund and Linda Gerber, were contributing authors to THE WORLD OF THE GOLDEN COMPASS: THE OTHERWORLDLY RIDE CONTINUES.


This awesome collection of stories was edited by best-selling author Scot Westerfield and is a must-read for anyone who has read the series or scene the movie. A perfect stocking stuffer!
