    Can't Wait to Read This Trilogy

    I won't receive these books until I return to TX ni January 2023. However, I began watching parts of the televised series ...and these bits and pieces have me wanting to read the trilogy. I hadn't heard of the books before and am eager to dive in. They are aimed for young adults and older and think they have universal appeal. $6.00 and free s/h for the three slip cased books seemed great. I know I won't be disappointed.

  • An excellent blend of fact and imagination

    I had read the set before and I would equate it with the Narnia series and "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy. It does satirize Christianity deservedly and combines the right touch of magic and imagined alternatives to our humdrum ordinary life. Bad guys lose; good guys suffer some losses, but win in the end. Best of all, this happens in the books' here and now, rather in some promised hereafter that all to often appears to be a set of empty promises. While sometimes seeming to be backing the heroes into a hopeless corner, deliverance comes in some form. The author's descriptions are done well enough to give the reader visual pictures that are plausible. This includes the talking animals. Every human owned by a pet today knows that talking animals are not so unusual, only the ability to ...

  • This is not a spoiler, so don't worry :)

    After reading the Lord of the Rings series, I noticed that many books of the fantasy genre simply use the series as a template for whatever story they are writing. They may change some names of specific events, places, etc or even change the setting or else they have taken what they found useful and convenient from the series. The thing I found most enjoyable about the His Dark Materials series was how unique and original it was. For the sake of not spoiling the story for future readers I will give a vague idea of the main pros and cons and use The Lord of the Rings as a comparison. Pros: 1.Character development is far superior to that of LOR. From the get-go, you are drawn to the protagonist of the story and sympathize with her all the way throughout all the books 2. The plot is very ...

  • Wonderful Trilogy - SO much better than the movie!!!

    This trilogy is entertaining and imaginative, especially as children (and adults!) envision these well described worlds and creatures so like and dislike that which we know. The author keeps the reader spellbound in imaginary worlds where moral questions are asked but no answers are spoonfed, leaving an opening for great conversations. The story line and relationships of the charachters are developed fully so that you feel you know and nderstand things just as the main character learns. Sometimes you cringe as you know what could waiting around the next corner, and sometimes you are surprised. A beautiful juxtapositioning to keep the reader on their toes.

  • NOT Harry Potter OR LOTR

    I hated the first book, hence I only got to about page 40. Can't speak for the last two. I found the first book completely non-engaging. I found myself not giving a rats hoot about any of the characters. I found myself not caring if I ever read any further. Maybe I just didn't "get it", but I found the strange juxtaposition of a fantasy world with the real world as we know it very disjointed. The blending in of the "Church", the "made up" places with bits of places that really exist, the made up groups of peoples that sort of corresponded with the real world were to me, just silly, not to mention confusing and annoying. I couldn't tell if it was supposed to take place in the past, present or future. Was it Earth, another planet, another dimension? Who knows and who cares? Certainly ...
