Product Description

 
The second book of Philip Pullman's epic fantasy trilogy brings Lyra and her daemon and a cast of characters both familiar and new into whole new worlds. Lyra and 12-year-old Will Parry, in a desperate flight for his life, are drawn closer to Will's father and closer to the Subtle Knife, a deadly, magical, ancient tool that cuts windows between worlds. Through it all, the pair are drawn deeper and deeper into a fierce battle that they may not survive.

The War in Heaven Rages on Multiple Earths....

Date of Review:  Jul 24, 2001
The Bottom Line: A stunning sequel that leaves us with a cliffhanger--no problem for me, I've already started the next (and last) book!
Review: I made the recent discovery of a new trilogy that I LOVE. Joining the other book series that I devour (Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Narnia, Oz, Prydain...) is the "His Dark Materials" Trilogy by Philip Pullman.

The first book was The...

The Subtle Knife: Nothing is Black or White

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2000
The Bottom Line: You'll find even richer, more complex development of the characters that were first introduced in Pullman's The Golden Compass, plus additional new characters to love and despise.
Review: If sequels tend to disappoint you, you're in for a pleasant surprise with The Subtle Knife, Book Two of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. There are no disappointments here. Much to my delight, there are none of those tedious recaps and...

What's So Subtle About A Knife?

Date of Review:  Jan 28, 2001
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend reading Pullman's trilogy. The Subtle Knife needs The Golden Compass to be understood. It is a fascinating tale and easily captures and intrigues you.
Review: The Subtle Knife is Phillip Pullman?s second book of a trilogy that starts with The Golden Compass and ends with The Amber Spyglass. Now that I have finished this second book, I am heading to the nearest bookstore as fast as my car can get me there!...
