About this listen
All three BBC radio dramatisations of the best-selling fantasy trilogy - plus bonus material.
A breathtaking epic spanning multiple worlds, His Dark Materials follows the adventures of Lyra Belacqua and Will Parry, two children catapulted into a life-or-death struggle to save the future of the Cosmos.
In Northern Lights, 11-year-old Lyra discovers dark forces at work involving kidnapped children and a mysterious substance called 'Dust'. With her shape-shifting daemon, Pantalaimon, she leaves her Oxford college home and embarks on a dangerous journey to the frozen North, aided by armoured bears, Gyptians and a witch-queen....
The Subtle Knife sees 12-year-old Will finding an opening into the haunted world of Cittàgazze, where daemon-destroying Spectres roam. There he meets Lyra, and together they acquire the most powerful weapon in all the universes - an object many would kill to possess.
In The Amber Spyglass, a colossal war is brewing in Heaven, and Lyra and Will have been separated. They must find each other and journey onward - even into the World of the Dead....
These thrilling dramatisations feature an all-star cast, including Lulu Popplewell, Terence Stamp, Bill Paterson, Kenneth Cranham and Adrian Scarborough.
Also included is a bonus documentary, World Book Club, in which Philip Pullman answers readers' questions about Northern Lights.

on audio, and it's not one for the radio either. There are so many things that are happening that I don't know what is going on.
You can only hear the effects, you really need to see them.
I suspect that everyone who listened to this and gave it a 5*,
probably watched these stories
on the television. Plus, the continual whispering is very annoying! Lyra swears to "bloody" much too, especially for a children's book! But good narration Philip Pullman.
Disappointed!

My only criticism was the voice of Lyra was extremely irritating and broke my immersion quite often.
Enjoyable listening...
