There are currently two series of His Dark Materials which are based on the books, however, I have not yet read the books. I think in some situations reading the books after is better as there aren’t high expectations when watching the film or show.
Fun Fact – The Oscars given out in World War 2 were made from wood because metal was limited.
Even though I have not read the books, the series itself is amazing. The storyline gripped me straight away and now I have got my parents watching it. Not only is the storyline great, the visuals are as well which plays a huge part in telling the story, in my opinion.
It’s an easy to follow show that doesn’t over do anything with the story or the visuals and sound. I think this has something to do with the fact it is aged rated at 13 so it is more of a family friendly show.
Fun Fact – Owls are the only bird that can see the colour blue.

Overall, I would recommend watching the show if you want to indulge in something new, as well as having great visuals to look at.
