This site's name comes from the second book in the His Dark Materials trilogy- The Subtle Knife. It means 'The Tower of the Angels'. So really I should have angels on the main page, but I quite like the inverted picture of the alethiometer! It plays quite an important part, but if you haven't read the book, I won't reveal any more about it! ^_^ |
I made this site because when searching through the internet for fanpages on Northern Lights - or rather the His Dark Materials trilogy, I couldn't find any. So I decided to make my own, for other fans, to provide info about the books and whatever else you may want to know about His Dark Materials trilogy. By making this site, I hope to promote the books to more people as well. I happen to know quite a lot of people who have read some of His Dark Material trilogy books, but across the net, they don't seem to be that widely recognised. For instance, I think The Amber Spyglass should rate higher on the top book lists! It's a really great book, but it doesn't seem to be very recognised. Therefore, it is my aim, to promote acknowledgement of this great book series, and hopefully, convert a few people. ^_^ After all, if I've managed to convert people to some certain things, I can do it again. I hope that you, the net surfer, finds this site useful and informative =) If you have any queries/comments/suggestions, feel free to email me at PS - I have now looked further on the net and found many more HDM fanpages, which is great! Trust me for being one of those people that can never find anything when they want to. And the books are recognised on the net, but I still think they should be more recognised. |
