His Dark Materials Trilogy by Philip Pullman - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 04-05-2020
Golden Compass, Subtle Knife, Amber Spyglass comprise the three books. Very entertaining, really down on the Catholic Church, and also, entertaining. I might watch the movie now.
I’d been hearing about the books for a long time, finally picked them up as Quarantreading. Dude loves his Milton. I like the idea of Armoured Polar Bears, so I was in for sure. Big, sprawly story.
Could be viewed as YA, but more on the A side.
Enjoyable.
I wish I had a small personal daemon pal...

I read the Golden Compass when it first came out. It never struck me all that well so I didn't complete the trilogy. The first movie was fine. The TV show makes me want to gouge my eyes out.

Yeah, I saw the movie link, but decided that the book(s) is/are better and deserved their own thread. Good pandemireading

Read the first one but didn't get hooked. Certainly clever but didn't grab me.

Wasn't Bond in it too?
RE: His Dark Materials Trilogy by Philip Pullman - Greg - 04-06-2020
Yes. Bond was in it.
For those liking this Trilogy, I believe Pullman is writing a sequel trilogy at the moment. I could find out but I really don't care all that much.
But I kind of think of revisiting this because it is so popular and I can't fathom it.

It's a YA trilogy, so maybe that's why?
