The only problem I had with themwas that they were in a trilogy and I had to wait to get the next book to carry on ;-)
For what are supposed to be early teens books, they are very thought provoking and moving. The whole idea of daemons was incredibly touching. And speaking as someone who went to a religous state school and then lapsed I think the idea of allowing kids to question their faith should be applauded, not feared...
How people can say they have real faith but have ever really questioned it amazes me
