The Juvenalia Book Club is back! We’re talking about book 2 of Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials series, The Subtle Knife. We talk about our love for new characters Will and Mary, the nature of dark matter in the His Dark Materials universe, whose dark material is it anyway?, trusting that a book will give you the answers you’re looking for if you just keep reading. Also, Andrea probes Alan’s understanding of what he’s reading and Alan tries his best to answer her.
