QueenGnome's DomainBOOK REPORT
Hi all this report on books is on a trilogy I bought in Scotland. They are written by a Scotsman Phillip Pullman and I wanted to let you know about this series because they are making a movie about the first one of his Dark Materials Trilogy. "The Golden Compass" ( or the Scottish title "Northen Lights") The other two are called #2"The Subtle Knife" and #3"The Amber Spyglass" Nancy has read these and Emily said they were in the library at her school so I imagine you can get them from the library. I've loaned them to several friends and they have all been facinated by them Kim is next on the list.You can borrow them from her..
They are really really great I couldn't put them down and was so glad I had all three.
I guess I had better give you a brief out line here goes.
Lyra is a little girl who lives in another dimension where everyone has a special daemon attached to them these daemons love and protect their humans. Lyra's best friend disappears and Lyra and her daemon set out on a special quest to find him. She crosses paths with witches, shape changing creatures from parallel universes. She finds her parents whom she thought were dead, she finds wonderful friends and deadly enimies. Lyra overcomes these strange terrors along with Will a young boy from our world.
This is a wonderful series a mixture of adventure,myth,religion and so much more.
You will really really enjoy this remarkable series. Phillip Pullman is a great story teller .The series is as good as "The Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter" combined.
