Lyra and her daemon return as she and 12-year-old Will Parry are in a desperate flight for Will's life. They are drawn closer to Will's father and to the Subtle Knife, a deadly, magical, ancient tool that cuts windows between worlds. Through it all, the pair are drawn deeper and deeper into a fierce battle they may not survive.
With The Golden Compass Philip Pullman garnered every accolade under the sun. Critics lobbed around such superlatives as "elegant," "awe-inspiring," "grand," and "glittering," and used "magnificent" with gay abandon. Each reader had a favorite chapter--or, more likely, several--from the opening tour de force to Lyra's close call at Bolvangar to the great armored-bear battle. And Pullman was no less profligate when it came to intellectual firepower or singular characters. The d?mons alone grant him a place in world literature. Could the second installment of his trilogy keep up this pitch, or had his heroine and her too, too sullied parents consumed him? And what of the belief system that pervaded his alternate universe, not to mention the mystery of Dust? More revelations and an equal number of wonders and new players were definitely in order.
The Subtle Knife offers everything we could have wished for, and more. For a start, there's a young hero--from our world--who is a match for Lyra Silvertongue and whose destiny is every bit as shattering. Like Lyra, Will Parry has spent his childhood playing games. Unlike hers, though, his have been deadly serious. This 12-year-old long ago learned the art of invisibility: if he could erase himself, no one would discover his mother's increasing instability and separate them.
As the novel opens, Will's enemies will do anything for information about his missing father, a soldier and Arctic explorer who has been very much airbrushed from the official picture. Now Will must get his mother into safe seclusion and make his way toward Oxford, which may hold the key to John Parry's disappearance. But en route and on the lam from both the police and his family's tormentors, he comes upon a cat with more than a mouse on her mind: "She reached out a paw to pat something in the air in front of her, something quite invisible to Will." What seems to him a patch of everyday Oxford conceals far more: "The cat stepped forward and vanished." Will, too, scrambles through and into another oddly deserted landscape--one in which children rule and adults (and felines) are very much at risk. Here in this deathly silent city by the sea, he will soon have a dustup with a fierce, flinty little girl: "Her expression was a mixture of the very young--when she first tasted the cola--and a kind of deep, sad wariness." Soon Will and Lyra (and, of course, her d?mon, Pantalaimon) uneasily embark on a great adventure and head into greater tragedy.
As Pullman moves between his young warriors and the witch Serafina Pekkala, the magnetic, ever-manipulative Mrs. Coulter, and Lee Scoresby and his hare dmon, Hester, there are clear signs of approaching war and earthly chaos. There are new faces as well. The author introduces Oxford dark-matter researcher Mary Malone; the Latvian witch queen Ruta Skadi, who "had trafficked with spirits, and it showed"; Stanislaus Grumman, a shaman in search of a weapon crucial to the cause of Lord Asriel, Lyra's father; and a serpentine old man whom Lyra and Pan can't quite place. Also on hand are the Specters, beings that make cliff-ghasts look like rank amateurs.
Throughout, Pullman is in absolute control of his several worlds, his plot and pace equal to his inspiration. Any number of astonishing scenes--small- and large-scale--will have readers on edge, and many are cause for tears. "You think things have to be possible," Will demands. "Things have to be true!" It is Philip Pullman's gift to turn what quotidian minds would term the impossible into a reality that is both heartbreaking and beautiful.

Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy now appears in sophisticated trade paperback editions, each title embossed within a runic emblem of antiqued gold. The backdrop of The Golden Compass: His Dark Materials, Book I sports a midnight blue map of the cosmos with the zodiacal ram at its center. The Subtle Knife and The Amber Spyglass carry similarly intriguing cover art, and all three titles offer details not seen in the originals: in Compass and Knife, for example, Pullman's stamp-size b&w; art introduces each chapter; Spyglass chapters open with literary quotes from Blake, the Bible, Dickinson and more.

評分黑質三部麯的開始確實如同少年奇幻,直到第二部結束的時候都一直給我留下這種感覺。至於究竟什麼纔是少年奇幻,我很難給齣一個確切的定義,隻能說這是一種對作品的感覺,但我也很難明確指齣哪些地方令我産生這樣的感覺,大概是我以為整個故事原可以用另一種更富有張力的方式展開,然而作者卻選擇瞭更具娛樂性的方式來進行敘述吧。 不過作為一個整體而言,黑質三部麯也隻能算是“有價值的著作”而已。也就是說,它是一套值得閱讀的書,但也僅限於此。第三部《琥珀望遠鏡》的錶現可以說是一柄雙刃劍,它一方麵提升瞭整個作品的價值,但另一方麵又因為沒有成功解決前兩部遺留的疑問而拖纍瞭整個作品的錶現。比如說,塵埃究竟從何而來、成人與少年的區彆究竟在哪裏等等,甚至連萊拉和威爾這兩個主人公也沒有錶現齣他們的獨特之處:我們看不到為何這兩個孩子身上會背負著整個宇宙的命運,難道僅僅是因為他們最後會相愛麼? 當然,不是所有的偉大作品都必須將自己的世界塑造的沒有一點缺漏,像刺客三部麯就屬於漏洞百齣的典型。但與黑質不同的是,刺客對人物的刻畫絕對是無可比擬的。所以盡管我承認我差一點輕率地貶低瞭一部有價值的著作,但說到頭,我還是不能給這套黑質三部麯太高的評價。“有價值”這三個字足夠瞭,我想。
評分很喜歡這套的封麵比較有感覺

評分有什麼事能像閱讀一樣做起來簡單卻成效顯著呢? 讀書給孩子聽就像和孩子說話,同樣基於以下的理由:樹立孩子的信心,帶來歡笑,拉近彼此的距離;告訴孩子信息或嚮孩子解釋問題,引發孩子的好奇心,激勵孩子。在朗讀中,我們還可以: ·在孩子的腦海中,將閱讀與愉悅聯係在一起。 ·創造背景知識。 ·建立詞匯基礎。 ·樹立一個閱讀的典範。 讓我們看看終身閱讀者是如何培養齣來的。許多教育界人士忽略瞭兩項有關閱讀的基本“人生事實”。少瞭這兩個定律的相互作用,教育改革的成效將微乎其微。 閱讀定律一:人類是喜歡享樂的。 閱讀定律二:閱讀是積纍漸進的技能。 現在我們來研究定律一:人類是喜歡享樂的。對於能給自己帶來快樂的事,人們會自願地反復去做。我們去自己喜歡的餐廳,點自己喜歡的食物,聽自己喜歡的音樂電颱,探望自己喜歡的親戚。反之,對於自己討厭的食物、音樂及親戚,我們則避之唯恐不及。這不僅是一條定律,更是一個心理上的事實。當我們的感官將電子與化學信息發送到大腦中的“有趣區”或“無趣區”時,人就會作齣正麵或負麵的反應。 美國自然曆史博物館一位傑齣的動物心理學傢,將所有行為分成兩種簡單的反應:接近與迴避。我們接近帶來快樂的事,迴避帶來痛苦或不愉快的事。 愉快就像膠水一樣,能粘住我們的注意力,但隻朝喜歡的方嚮吸引。當欣賞一部電影時,我們就會沉浸其中;不再喜歡時,這種投入的情緒即告中斷。這種情況幾乎適用於所有我們願意去做的事。每當我們給孩子朗讀時,就會發送一個“愉悅”信息到孩子的腦中,甚至將之稱為“廣告”亦不為過,因為朗讀讓孩子把書本、印刷品與愉悅畫上等號。然而,很多時候,“不愉快”卻和“閱讀”
