The Subtle Knife

The book is volume 2 in the “His Dark Materials” trilogy, started by “The Golden Compass”. While I read it pretty voraciously, I didn’t find it as engaging as the first book. It suffers from the typical shortcoming of the middle book in trilogies. Most of what happens in this book is setting up for the climax to come in book 3, and while there’s the beginning of the explanation of some of the mysteries of the first book, it doesn’t achieve the same sense of wonderment.
