I have just finished reading a triligy of books called His Dark Materials by an author called Philip Pullman. It was a very interesting story, and i couldn't get enough of it!

So...this thread is to discuss (for those people who read the book). I doubt anyone here would've read it other then me and my sister...-_-

But the books of His Dark Materials triligy is:

The Golden Compass
The Subtle Knife
The Amber Spyglass


These were very well written (and my sister almost cried at the end of the third book O_O) very touching...and awesome...

Anyways, if ANYONE here has ever read these books, discuss...

i totally doubt it -_-...

The triligy was indeed very interesting to read...i bet we're the only ones here that take time to read lengthy novels...

Wrong. Although, I just could never get into The Golden Compass so I didn't bother with the rest of the series.

I loved the books, hated the ending. It's like he came up with a bunch of stuff just to ensure that... yeah, I won't say more for spoilers.
Still, I enjoyed reading them. I want a subtle knife. ;_;

To ensure people are to be apart...authors just HAVE to come up with a happy ending THEN seperate people from their friends...

Same in Lord of the Rings trilogy...Frodo had to leave in that boat, and in the latest book of Harry Potter (seventh book?), Dumbledore had...well...ceased to...you know...

It's the sixth book, actually ^^ Draco and Snape rulez.

I think there's a short sequel for His Dark Materials. The book's call 'Lyra's Oxford', but the story's... nothing, really. Just a short story about Lyra, but they did mention Will(... the boy's name is Will, right?) once. Nothing special.

yeah...i can't find Lyra's Oxford in my school library! >_<

So i'm gonna have to find time to go to chapters and search for it. Even if the sequel book isn't really anything special, a sequel is a sequel!

And yes, the sexy boy's name who hit on the fugly girl is Will! XD

Really? I find that hard to believe it's a sequel to three "350 page" books...

btw, 350 is an estimated average...

The sequel is like... a fanfic. They will not mention what happened in the past. Just a wee of Will and some of their old comrades, but that's all. Only a short mention.

The story's all about Lyra solving some mystery.
