Just okay

"Unfortunately not a lot happened in this book. I was beyond frustrated with our MC because of the stupid decisions that she makes, but then I had to remind myself that she's 11-12 years old. If anything, this book basically sets everything up for the last book (or so I hope) in this series. So. . . boring stuff. Not sure if 3 stars is generous, but we'll see. ."

— Amelie (3/5)

I love this series, but slowest book

"This is my least favourite book in this series, but I still think this is a great series and worth reading if you enjoy YA/fantasy and world-building"

— Melanie (4/5)

Needs more Lyra

"I found this to be more of a page-turner than the first one, but it also had less substance. I was also really disappointed with the way Lyra was just sidelined - and even spent a good deal of the story unconscious!"

— Marzipan (3/5)

Worth Reading Again

"I'm reading this again having just finished The Book of Dust. Had forgotten how great the writing is and the creation of alternate/parallel universes. Pullman writes a gripping, tension-filled story."

— Barbara W. (5/5)

Excellent

"I enjoyed this as much as an adult as I did a teen. It is well written and thought out, the detail and thought put into the book is stunning. I"

— Rebecca (5/5)

Love this series

"The second book of the series does not disappoint. Fantastic."

— Yvonne (5/5)

Not as good

"I read these books about 7 years ago and now I have listened to them again because I remembered that I enjoyed them and wanted to relive the experience. I did enjoy this second book although not as much as the first one. Will and Lyra were good characters and their adventures were interesting, however this book was much slower and I didn't feel as connected to it as I remember."

— Diana (3/5)

Can't wait to read it again

"This is definitely a book that you'll want to re-read! An excellent sequel, and I can honestly say that its enjoyable to read as an adult as well!"

— Virginia (5/5)

Subtle Knife

"Lyra is a great main character and this is an excellent sequel."

— Caroline (5/5)

Dark and twisty

"A great follow up to The Golden Compass. Even though a couple months had passed since I read the first book in the series, I was able to pick up again right where I left off and got right back into the otherworldliness of His Dark Materials. I'm often surprised by how violent this series is, considering it's supposed to be for kids. I'm intrigued by how the knife is going to play a part in the rest of the story, and can't wait to read the final instalment!"

— BeckBeforeDawn (4/5)

"More than fulfilling the promise of The Golden Compass, this second volume starts off at a heart-thumping pace and never slows down....The grandly exuberant storytelling is sure to enthrall."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"The intricacy of the plot is staggering...There is no doubt that the work is stunningly ambitious, original, and fascinating."--The Horn Book (starred review)

"The character development as well as the relentless pace...make this a resoundingly successful sequel...it will leave readers desperate for the next installment."--Booklist (starred review)
Philip Pullman is one of the most acclaimed writers working today. He is best known for the His Dark Materials trilogy (The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass), which has been named one of the top 100 novels of all time by Newsweek and one of the all-time greatest novels by Entertainment Weekly. He is also the author of another trilogy set in the same world, The Book of Dust (La Belle Sauvage, The Secret Commonwealth, and The Rose Field) as well as numerous other much-loved novels, a collection of fairy tales, and a volume of essays and speeches on writing. He has won many distinguished prizes, including the Carnegie Medal, the Whitbread (now Costa) Award, Parents’ Choice Gold Awards, and the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award. Pullman was knighted for services to literature in the New Years Honours 2019. He lives in Oxford, England.
