a fitting end

Revisado: 08-11-24

wonderfully rounded out end to the trilogy. excellent narrator. I found d myself wanting to go on after pausing each time. several bookmarks were placed into excellent writing bits. I wholly recommend this series.

basic psychology 101

Revisado: 12-17-23

If you have anxiety issues that you can't figure out and seem irrational, this book might be for you. it's very basic in its structure and information. however, the practices could be affective if the situation were similar with the person suffering. chapter 12 and 13 make up for the rest of the book though. so, it starts strong and ends well but getting there is a chore. also this dude reads so freaking slow I changed the speed to 1.25 like within the first 10 words. it was an ok book, had some decent points, but definitely not a deep thinker.

Excellent

Revisado: 04-14-23

I read The Black Pirate right before this, which happens to leave off right before Napoleon flattens Santa Domingo. This story of Ruth just by chance picks up where that book had left off! This was such an excellent story, the narration was very good, and the book leaves off where the next one will pick up. I took a chance, and I'm so glad I did with this book. what a beautiful insight into such an important character.

I'm obsessed

Revisado: 01-26-23

Not only is this by far Pullman's best work, but Michael Sheen is absolutely brilliant as a narrator. This book is fast moving, action packed, and makes you want to know what happens next. I was, however, unaware this is book 2 of 3, I thought it was the last. I look forward though to the next book, very much.

It was ok

Revisado: 01-13-23

A short story that, while told very well, is pretty open ended. It's more like 'a day in the life of lyra." A decent story that can stand alone, but too short and leaves too many questions.

Excellent

Revisado: 01-13-23

A very short little story that gives a very tiny ghostly glimpse into the afterlife of a very crafty Dark Materials character. It was very good but I wish it had been longer and given more detail! Alone it's like one of those three sentence horror stories that leaves more questions than answers. I do recommend this story!

An excellent story.

Revisado: 01-13-23

A small side story that gives a history of how Lee met Ioric. Full of adventure, well told, and wraps up well. In addition, it ties itself to Lyra at college. This story can stand on its own, but was excellent to hear after the Dark Materials trilogy.

Best of the three

Revisado: 01-12-23

This book is the saving grace of the trilogy. Instead of annoying random music between each chapter, the author (and narrator) reads a passage from some other great work. This story is quick and complete, but does jump around a bit so it takes a sec to catch up with where you are. The ending is complete and well rounded.

A wild ride

Revisado: 01-04-23

This story, while it follows a loose narrative, takes a lot of wild turns. At the end it is all explained but up until that point. several times, I thought to myself, "really?!? well, why not I guess?" and pressed on with the story. while the acting is good, the voices took some getting used to. I'm going to finish the series but it's rough. oh, worst part is there is unnecessarily overly dramatic terrible music. between each chapter, just...why?!? ugh.
