"The Subtle Knife" is the second book in
the Dark Materials trilogy. Will is 12 years old and he's just killed a
man. Determined to discover the truth about his father's disappearance, he
steps through a window into another world. There, he meets a girl called Lyra
who, like himself, is on a mission. Armed with the Subtle Knife, a tool that
cuts any material (including that which separates universes) and Lyra's
alethiometer, the children set on a journey of discovery that will ultimately
become a battle between Good and Evil. |
