I really enjoyed the Philip Pullman "His Dark Materials" booksI don't care that they were written for kids. They're dark, moody, unsentimental and beautiful, and Lee Scoresby and Hester are one of the best partnerships I've ever come across in a story.

Like Mong goose I cried when Lee died, but also wept openly when Lyra has to be separated from Pan before she enters the land of the dead.

For some reasonI had to skip read the last 100 or so pages of the last book - my attention went and I lost the will. I think that was more me failing than the books and none the less I was surprised by how good they were.

I liked them quite a bit although I lost track of what was going on towards the end of the last book.
