Editor reviews

Écrit par Philip Pullman, Les Royaumes du Nord est une aventure haute en couleurs qui a reçu de nombreux éloges depuis sa publication en 1995. Jean-Claude Drouot donne vie à chaque personnage, offrant une écoute des plus agréables. Une adolescente orpheline nommée Lyra et son animal familier, Pan, se retrouvent au milieu d'une conspiration politique. N'ayant personne en qui avoir confiance, Lyra doit choisir entre le bien et le mal, mettant ses amis et sa famille en danger à chaque décision qu'elle prend. Les Royaumes du Nord est un thriller à couper le souffle, renforçant le fait que les choses ne sont pas toujours ce qu'elles semblent être. Un fantasme unique sans réelle magie (mais avec beaucoup de surnaturel), ce roman met en avant les idéaux de la religion, de la morale et de la politique et les examine d'une manière que les jeunes auditeurs peuvent comprendre et apprécier.

Summary

Pourquoi la jeune Lyra, élevée dans l'atmosphère confinée du prestigieux Jordan College, est-elle l'objet de tant d'attentions ? De quelle mystérieuse mission est-elle investie ? Lorsque son meilleur ami disparaît, victime des ravisseurs d'enfants qui opèrent dans le pays, elle se lance sur ses traces. Un périlleux voyage vers le Grand Nord, qui lui révélera ses extraordinaires pouvoirs et la conduira à la frontière d'un autre monde.

Perfection

The story and the telling of it is exceptional. The story seems so well crafted and original, and its narrator doesn't let it down; rather seems to enhance it wonderfully. He must have loved telling it! Also, the incidental music is just the right match, and nicely timed. I don't know the story in English, but I'm confident that the translation is faithful to the original. One of my first Audible purchases, and, I think, a hard one to match.

The book that sold audible to me

Would you consider the audio edition of Les royaumes du Nord (À la croisée des mondes 1) to be better than the print version?

I prefer unabridged

What other book might you compare Les royaumes du Nord (À la croisée des mondes 1) to, and why?

Harry Potter trilogies- as gripping and believable but deeper and darker and addresses some uncomfortable questions about religion. I love listening to it in French.

What does Jean-Claude Drouot bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

.

Any additional comments?

Please please bring out the sequels in French !!
