The Authority (His Dark Materials)
The Authority
in
Philip Pullman's
trilogy
of novels
His Dark Materials
is the equivalent of
God
- or according to Pullman the God of the
Inquisition
. The Authority was the first
angel
who (according to the angel
Xaphania
) allegedly seized power and claimed to be the creator of the
multiverse
. Being very old and frail, The Authority appointed the
tyranical
angel
Metatron
to act as
regent
of the
Kingdom
of
Heaven
. The two are opposed by
Lord Asriel
, for whom Xaphania will fight, who wishes to overthrow their power and replace it with a
Republic
of Heaven.
