Great writing. I don't agree with the author, but don't bash it. I read it in junior high as being anti-organized religion...whatever.

fantastic trilogy - the golden compass is by far the best. the movie didn't do it justice.

Interesting storyline. Nice characterisation for kids' books. Slightly creepy and pedofilic in the last book.

I read this when I was nine - absolutely riveting, though many of the words were foreign to me then. Planning to re-read sometime.

I have to admit I can't remember the exact plotline, but I recall that they are extremely imaginative and grab hold of the reader. More original than Harry P.

The quality degrades somewhat towards the end of the series, but overall, these are some of my favorite books. Part 1 is especially imaginative and immersive.

Draws on lots of sources (Greek mythos/Bible) to treat a variety of topics (coming of age/organized religion/cultural institutions/spirituality/consciousness)

One of the few series I stood waiting year after year for the next book to come out. It's simply a wonderful & bittersweet story that everyone should read.

The_Shadow
Entrancing story that takes you to a different world while discovering things about our own. Worth reading and re-reading again and again.

A series of books that are just as good for adults as they are for teens. A must read for people who enjoy complex characters and thought-provoking themes.

great series. I liked the mystery of who was good and bad, making it very different than many books of this genre. The movie ruined this, if you can avoid it.

Very imaginative series, especially the reflections on childhood and puberty. Pullman's views on God differ vastly from mine, so I don't mind him killing him!

Anything that involves killing god gets my vote... and this is incredibly vividly written.
