Chapter 9 – The Spies - Northern Lights

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 9 of Northern Lights – The Spies.

In this chapter, Lyra and Farder Coram form a beautiful father-daughter relationship which we are SO here for. Lyra predicts a spy’s death using the alethiometer, which leads John Faa to the decision to take her north after all. And Mrs Coulter sends some beetle-like spy devices to find Lyra.

Bonus points if you can hear storm Ciara in the background!
