Her Dark Materials is a bi-weekly podcast hosted by Faye and Rachael discussing the His Dark Materials novels chapter by chapter, spoiler-free.

In this episode we chat about Chapter 2 of The Subtle Knife – Among the Witches.

In this chapter, we join Serafina as she tries to save a captured witch from being tortured by Mrs Coulter. She’s on a mission to find Lyra and visits the witch’s consul in Trollesund, then Thorold on Svalbard to try and find out more about Asriel’s plan. Serafina heads back home where we find out Lee has been staying with the witches. We meet Ruta Skadi, the queen of the Latvian witches. Also did we mention this chapter is VERY GAY?
