#23 The Golden Compass

A steampunk, young adult & alternative universe setting is not our usual cup of tea in a book. But here it works, and works well. The His Dark Materials series is as enticing as it is controversial, and we discuss the nature of that controversy and how it should be handled as you read. There is some deep symbolism here with meanings which may be unsettling to some readers. Plus, looking for the best way to get rich as a kid and fool your grandparents? Chat with us more!
