It follows the coming-of-age of two children, Lyra Belacqua and Will Parry, as they wander through a His Dark Materials Trilogy: Northern Lights of parallel universes against a backdrop of epic events. The story involves fantasy elements such as witches and armoured polar bears, and alludes to a broad range of ideas from fields such as physics, philosophy, theology and spirituality. The trilogy functions in part as a retelling and inversion of Subtle Knife Milton's epic, Paradise Lost; with Pullman commending humanity for what Milton saw as its most tragic failing.

This "book", and every single other "book" done by Subtle Knife hacks are literally nothing but copied and pasted Wikipedia articles. It is a damn shame and disgrace that booksellers like Barnes and Noble, and Amazon, sell this crap for these idiots. These people are Subtle Knife losers if they think their copypasta make for a book worth buying. You're better off reading Wikipedia on your own and not giving these clowns a single penny for the 'work' they do. Aug 31, Janay Anderson rated it really liked it.

The knife was described Amber Spyglass common looking with short, dual edged blade, made out of two different metals. One side of the blade was made out of steel and had the edge so keen, it could cut through any physical material with negligible resistance. The other side was made out of what Lyra assumed to be the same type of metal used in intercisions which would His Dark Materials Trilogy: Northern Lights it a manganese- titanium alloy and was described His Dark Materials Trilogy: Northern Lights be "shade-coloured. The handle of the knife was made out of wood and adorned with the relief made out of golden wire in the shape of an angel with spread wings on one side, and the angel with closed wings on other side. The wire was slightly elevated from the wood of the handle to ensure a firm grip on the weapon. The knife also possessed a special leather sheath with straps meant to hold the knife in place while His Dark Materials Trilogy: Northern Lights in use, as it could effortlessly cut through even the thickest leather. No known material was able to resist the knife, although it was breakable, should a wielder attempt to use it whilst thinking about a person they loved. It was the belief of certain individuals that this was because the knife was incapable of His Dark Materials Trilogy: Northern Lights through love. Due to this, the knife was broken on two separate occasions. Although Iorek was able to reforge it the first time, it altered the appearance of the knife. Its handle was charred from the forge fire, the blade shortened as the result of the smithing process, and left with the perpetual dark seams on the places where the shards were connected. Will considered the end result to be "ugly". However, the knife's abilities weren't impaired even the slightest as the result, as it was still immeasurably sharp. The knife apparently held the ability to kill Spectres, as Will managed to stab one with it causing it to fade away. The second breaking of the knife was purposeful, and left the blade of the knife in shards once again. It is unknown if the reforging has been attempted since. The full list of its bearers is unknown, but the first bearer known by name is Giacomo Paradisiwho won it in a fight with the previous bearer, and lost the two small fingers on his left hand obtaining it. He hid in the Torre degli Angeli Amber Spyglass the insurgence of Spectres in his world, for many years protecting the knife. Lord Boreal and the Magisterium of the Church wanted to possess the knife because its ability to cut through any material threatened the Authoritywho had survived the First Rebellion only because the rebel angels could not harm him with any existing Subtle Knife or material at the time their fears were later confirmed when Will and Lyra used the knife to free the Authority. Will and Lyra instead took the knife and used it to travel His Dark Materials Trilogy: Northern Lights their worlds for a long while, though the knife once broke when Will, trying to open a window, was distracted by the thought of his mother. The shattered pieces were collected Amber Spyglass the two children, though, and repaired by the armoured bear and great metalworker Iorek Byrnison. Iorek warned Will and Lyra that the knife had purposes of its own — indicating an intelligence akin Amber Spyglass that of the alethiometer. He also indicated these purposes might not be good. Later, the angel Xaphania explained that Dust had been leaking out of the worlds through the windows made by the knife, and that, each time the knife made a window, it drew up a Spectre from the Abyss. Thus all windows leading between worlds had to be closed by the angels, except for one. Will and Lyra initially believed this one window could be between their worlds, but then realized that they had made a promise to the shades in the world of the dead: to leave Subtle Knife an opening so that they can leave it and rejoin the universe, by emerging His Dark Materials Trilogy: Northern Lights the world of the mulefa. Thus, Will realised he Subtle Knife to shatter the knife. As people in Amber Spyglass multiverse are not capable of surviving for long outside their own universes, it was also necessary that Will and Lyra each return to their own worlds.
