Advantages: action packed

Disadvantages: none

The Subtle Knife is part of a three book series beginning with the Golden compass and ending with Amber Spyglass.I have read this who series and would really recommend it to anyone looking for a science fiction series. The books really let your imagination and The subtle Knife is action packed.

The story
It starts off when A boy by the name of Will stumbles across a window leading to alternative world to his own.This World is an exact replica of his own except its full of magic and everyone has there own daemon(there soul represented by an animal that if dies that person dies as well)He then meets a young girl by the name of lara who has a golden compass which reveals the truth about anything as well as the future.
When a man steals lara's compass he forces them to go in search of a magic knife also known as the subtle knife which has the ability to open doors to other worlds.The Knife also has the ability to cut through any material from steel to anything you can imagine though the ability to go into other worlds comes with a price it creates evil spirits who kill grown ups.

The subtle Knife will eventually be made into a movie.currently Plans for the movie are on hold because of the current rescission in USA.You can get updates on www.Imdb.com on the status of the movie.The authors name is Philip Pulman
