Artemis drew a tired hand across his sweaty brow. So far the three extraordinary children had climbed two mountains, crossed six valleys, and passed through three towns. What’s more, Lyra and Will didn’t seem to be tiring.
“Where are we going, again?” Artemis asked between gasps.
Without looking behind, Will answered, “To find Lord Asriel. I have to give him the Subtle Knife, Ǽsahættr, whatever.”
“Whatever for? Didn’t Lyra say Lord Asriel was evil?”
Will glared at him. It was clear he didn’t think very highly of Artemis, the ignorant, stuck up, occasionally obnoxious rich genius. “Listen. I have a duty to my father and I will see it through.” He turned back but hesitated. Then he turned to Artemis again and said, “And don’t tell Lyra about it. Please. She wouldn’t want the Subtle Knife to get to Lord Asriel.” Artemis nodded but didn’t say anything.
They scrambled over rocks as big as elephants and around lakes the size of oceans but, still, they kept moving.

I’ve read both the giver and gathering blue, bit it’s been a long time. they’re wonderful, i remember. i’ve read all the triliogy of the golden compass, and loved the books, although my church is majorly agenst them… regarding the movie aspect, you are so lucky you get to see movies so early jelly! i see them somewhatly early because my mom works with a movie theatre chain, but not nearly as early as you.

I like the short chapters! I LOVE short chapters. I’ve read the Dark Materials, and they’re so good! I haven’t seen the movie, though. I don’t want to, anyway. But you should read the other series Philip Pullman wrote. The first one is called the Ruby in the Smoke. READ IT! It’s so good. Btw, I like your story! continue!

artyfowl3, i am sorry to say that i will never read this story, Pullman’s( >:(_)-rar(i hate him)) stories (ANY of them), or any other books about killing God.
Yes, Pullman himself said (and i quote)…
“My books are about killing God.”
