The Subtle Knife (Book Two, His Dark Materials Series)


Just managing to escape Lord Asriel's insane project, with her life, Lyra finds herself stranded in a spectral world in between dimensions. This city is known as Cittagazze, the city of magpies. Also lost in this strange world is Will Parry, searching for his father after fleeing his (our) world. He is a murderer. Lyra joins Will in his search for his father as they travel between worlds in this adventure of a lifetime. But, at the same time, Ms. Coultier is searching for Lyra, for reasons unknown, and will stop at nothing to have her in her iron hard grasp. Meanwhile, Lord Asriel is beginning to amass an army, an army preparing for the greatest war of all time, a war against God. However, Lurking in the deepest, darkest, oldest, strangest reaches of Cittagazze is an item of extraordinary power, a weapon that could only be described as subtle.

The Subtle Knife is full of mystery, history, exploration, and alternate universes. The Subtle Knife is  intriguing, yet subtle, and hints as to who is actually pulling the strings.
