THE SUBTLE KNIFE by Philip Pullman
Wednesday, February 27th, 2008 Check the catalog for this item.
This is the second book in Mr. Pullman’s His Dark Materials trilogy, continuing the action (and there’s lots of action) from The Golden Compass. (And- The Golden Compass is now a new movie). All of the books in this trilogy have won prestigious awards. But parents may want to consider that some scenes include children in serious danger. There is also a rather dark cosmology and theology that runs through all three books, becoming ever darker in the later volumes.
