His Dark Materials is a series of three
novels by Phillip Pullman: The Golden
Compass(also published under the title Northern
Lights), The Subtle Knife and The Amber Spyglass. I read these novels
many years ago and was enchanted. I recently experienced them again on Audible.com
and was not disappointed.
Pullman’s
trilogy is considered a masterpiece and is reminiscent of the works of Tolkien
and C.S. Lewis. Like those masters, Pullman has created a story of a parallel
universe where magic, witches and talking animals are commonplace At the center
of this story is a young, fierce, indomitable little girl, Lyra. Her adventures
and struggle to combat evil and right the world create a mythical heroine. Not
to be missed.
Highly recommend.
