“She had asked: What is he? A friend or an enemy?"
“The alethiometer answered: He is a murderer."
“When she saw the answer, she relaxed at once. He could find food, and show her how to reach Oxford, and those were powers that were useful, but he might still have been untrustworthy or cowardly.

Oh, man, this really makes me want to re-read the entire series again.
I've recently gotten into audiobooks for the first time in my life. I wonder if there's a quality production of His Dark Materials.
Just looked it up. There are 6 more books outside the original trilogy (9 in all). I have some reading to do.
Wow, I had no idea! I gotta look into those too. Thanks for the head's up!
