We’ve dreamed of this… Northern Lights as a graphic novel?

And now it’s happened,

20 years after Philip Pullman published

the first volume of His Dark Materials.

The first book in a stunning three-volume

graphic novel adaptation of Northern Lights,

the Graphic Novel: Volume 1

has been published in English.

There’s a fascinating history here though,

the graphic novel was first published in France!

It was adapted by French writer Stéphane Melchoir

with artwork by Clément Oubrerie.

Now their graphic novel

has been retranslated back into English by Annie Eaton.
