Science or Religion?
We read these books to learn for ourselves why they stirred up so much conflict. Never people to just accept what others are saying about the Church, or to believe everything that's taught, we are thinking and reasoning believers in God. These stories, while definately fiction, have great moral...

My wife enjoyed them.
The seller was very accurate and considerate about their product and shipping.I purchased these for my wife (I will be reading them soon), and she thoroughly enjoyed them. She did comment that she'd be surprised if the other movies ever get made simply because there are a lot of sensitive topics.

Plot questions
My thoughts on this trilogy, correct me if I'm wrong. as said on other posts, the writing is well done. However I have some issues with the plot.To me there isn't much closure in the end. During the whole series it is told that Lyra had some important decision to make as Eve, and would be tempted...

Anti Christian story.
I'm not generally into rating things as a Christian....actually I consider myself "spiritual not religious" but after reading the trilogy I felt compelled to warn others. While the story is fine for the first 2 books when you get to the 3'rd it turns out the plot is about "God" being a fake and...

Don't judge the books by the movie
Like many other people, I went to see The Golden Compass in the theater. At the end of the movie, it just sort of abruptly ended, and I remember being a little disoriented by the lack of closure. Now I understand that it was being faithful to the book. Since this is one story split among three...

Expanded my horizons
I love this book series it was very engaging. All the arguments about how dangerous this is to children reading the series always go over my head. I can't imagine how all the dangerous complicated thoughts that some adults are so sure are going to destroy a child's soul. They are just too...

Amazing Fantasy Masterpiece
Philip Pullman has truly created an epic fantasy masterpiece. Many may not agree but I believe that the three books that may up "His Dark Materials" trilogy will shine as a beacon in the literary world by joining other masterpieces like "Lord of the Rings" and "Chronicles of Narnia". Reading...

His Dark Materials Trilogy
I was kept constantly interested just to see how the author's mind worked as he moved from enigma to conundrum! The idea of a continuous cycle of universes is not a new one, but his approach to it -- and how one would move from one to the other -- is totally unique. If the move-makers go on to...
