The Juvenalia Book Club: His Dark Materials - The Subtle Knife

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.

Alan is @alan_maguire. Juvenalia is his main thing right now but he does a bit of standup sometimes too.

Andrea  @AndreaCleary_. Her other podcasts are My Favourite Album With Andrea Cleary and The Nialler9 Podcast. Her newsletter is at https://andrea-cleary.ghost.io/
