	Northern Lights - Drago Jancar
		True danger is largely still at a distance, but like the spectacular Aurora Borealis (the northern lights) of that year, warning lights flare brightly and sounds blare loudly.
		Along with the northern lights come magnetic storms that cause the needles of compasses to "shudder fitfully around its north-pointing position of repose", jerking to east and west.
		Northern Lights is a fine, well crafted book about Central Europe on the eve of the Second World War, well worth reading.

		Lyra's life is already sufficiently interesting for a novel before she eavesdrops on a presentation by her uncle Lord Asriel to his colleagues in the Jordan College faculty, Oxford.
		The college, famed for its leadership in experimental theology, is funding Lord Asriel's research into the heretical possibility of the existence of worlds unlike Lyra's own, where everyone is born with a familiar animal companion, magic of a kind works, the Tartars are threatening to overrun Muscovy, and the Pope is a puritanical Protestant.
		Regarding the plot of "Northern lights" (= "The Golden compass"), the main character is an orphan girl named Lyra, that lives in the Jordan College of Oxford.

		Then his face cleared again, and she got him his pipe and filled it, and held a coal to light it; and, as the smoke curled up, and he leaned back contentedly for the moment, she went to the door, drew open the curtains, and, stepping outside, raised her eyes to the horseshoe.
		She saw the tobacco-juice stain at the corners of his mouth, she became conscious of the slight odour of spirits in the air, and the light in her face lowered in intensity.

		O'Brien is a master storyteller; his novels are full of poetic observations about the miniutae of everyday life peppered with dialogue and characters that are vividly realistic.
		It is easy to see "Northern Lights" as a first novel; the blizzard that traps the brothers in the woods also traps the readers.
		Northern Lights by Tim O'Brien was not the most exciting novel I've ever read but worth reading nonetheless.

		Northern Lights is set in Lunacy, Alaska, where we follow the adventures of a policeman, Nate Burke, who has transferred from Baltimore.
		I was recommended this novel by a friend who said it took a long time to get into the story, but I found it fascinating; the descriptions of Alaska and the Aurora borelis; the town Lunacy (tongue in cheek, for lunatics); the cold and light of the land; and lifestyles of the characters.
		I was predisposed to enjoy Nora Robert's "Northern Lights", as I like most books, fiction and non, having to do with the Alaskan wilderness and the Arctic.

	Northern Lights (The Golden Compass) - Philip Pullman
		Northern Lights is the first volume of the His Dark Materials - trilogy.
		Northern Lights (or The Golden Compass as it's called in contrary America) is set in "a universe like ours, but different in many ways".
		Pullman does hold the reader's interest throughout: he creates a vivid enough tableau, with so much going on (and so many questions unanswered) that one readily (and easily) gulps the book down.

	Amazon.ca: Northern Lights: Books: Nora Roberts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Though billed as romantic suspense, the novel forsakes artificial genre conventions in favor of a wry, affectionate look at community bonds, generational wounds and soul-testing landscapes.
		The result is a richly textured novel that captures the intimacy of smalltown police work, the prickliness of the pioneer spirit and the paradox of a setting at once intimate and expansive, welcoming and hostile, indisputably American and yet profoundly exotic to those in the Lower 48.
		This small reservation aside, Roberts's latest hit novel could not be performed better.
