„His Dark Materials“ von Philip Pullman ist einer der Kinderbuchklassiker unserer Zeit. Die Trilogie gewann zahlreiche bedeutende Preise, wurde für Film, Fernsehen und die Bühne adaptiert und erzielte in den USA ähnliche Verkaufszahlen wie „Harry Potter“. Die drei Bände „Northern Lights“, „The Subtl...
An utterly absorbing tale, which sparkles in its creativity and reaches young and older readers alike, with the quality of Pulman's writing. The characterization is exceptional, the plot intriguing and the pace superb. A modern classic series which really does deserve the description, page-turner.
My favorite book series. Highly underrated. Such a unique story and loved the idea of souls living outside our bodies in the form of daemons. Lyra was an amazing protagonist—so strong and able, especially considering her young age throughout the books. My favorite was The Subtle Knife. Loved the ide...
I read this as a child and was completely caught up by the magic of it. I have fond memories of playing elaborately constructed games set in Pullman's universe with my friends--we had such fun inventing daemons for ourselves!

i am actually assuming that i will be Left Behind, so my concern is more for others. i hate seeing families and friends split apart! when it does occur, i would like to be someplace where there will be lots and lots of folks being Raptured....that way, right afterwards, i'll be able to pick up all t...
I would possibly have given The Golden Compass 5 stars...the other two would be somewhere around 3. I really enjoyed the story...so many of the characters are wonderful, and the world(s) that Pullman created are very original and creative...I loved how Dust worked in so differently to each one.The e...
