I enjoyed the whole trilogy, great worldbuilding and a strong plot line that flows though all 3 books. As an adult, there were layers for meaning that raised it above a mere children’s book.
Original series …. near the top of my favorites list. I bought what he calls the prequel, Book of Dust I, almost as soon as it came out; then I tried for six months to get into it — it’s a slow starter, or I am. Once I got beyond the first chapter, I really enjoyed it.
In my top 3 books I recommend to people who loved Harry Potter. Great world building and a heroine of true heart. Lyra is one of my favorite characters of all time! ❤️
Love the world he’s created in those books, but I’m not terribly interested in the actual storyline.
I loved the whole trilogy when I read it in high school, but that was 18 years ago so I’m iffy on many of the details at this point.
Besides it being the best book ever? Listen to the audiobook! It’s a work of art in itself.
I think it’s more interesting as an adult! I just read the newly published prequel.
Hi loved it!
Love love LOVE this series!
Absolutely brilliant!! One of my favorite series!!
Great series!
Great book, I enjoyed the whole series and just bought his new book.
Amazing book – the film is rubbish!!

I had trouble getting into the new one (a “prequel”) but still want to read to follow the story.
Loved it
One of my favs!
Fantastic (book and audiobook)
Meh. But others I know have loved it.
So many of my friends LOVE it! My kids LOVE it. I just read it this year and was like ok. How many more pages?
I loved it too!! It’s a great book
Mmmm….. Maybe I should try again, I read only the first years ago and it was zzzzzz…. for me…
The whole series is phenomenal.
Going to read to my kids once we finish Harry Potter. I loved them the first time. Looking forward to a re-read.
Loved the trilogy.
I really enjoyed it!
Loved all 3 books

Excellent trilogy
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I stopped somewhere in the middle of Book III. I must reread one day, because Book I was fantastic.

Good book!
Pullman is quite militantly anti-christian and It comes out in his works. It can be quite a surprise, depending on your standpoint
anti-Church, I would say, rather than anti-Christian.
Subtle but important difference!
Fantastic trilogy! And the audio, with full cast recording is great!
It;s good and has some good original ideas
