This series is incredible and it is a crying shame that the religious right shut down the movie series productions. ( ) It's not my favorite fantasy series, but it's pretty engrossing. The biggest surprise for me was Pullman actually sort of rewriting parts of the Bible to fit his fictional world. That's pretty heavy for a kid's book and bound to confuse (or maybe even upset) young readers who've been raised Christian. Or, you know, their parents. Just listened to the audio version of this after having read it many years ago in high school. They got quite a few different voice actors and it was definitely a good listen. The story held up, though I was also nostalgic so my standards might not be the same as for reading a book for the first time.
Pullman's prose is quite lovely and he's obviously put a lot of consideration into his setting and background, the fascinating history of this alternate world and the various creatures populating it. But with under-realized characters to carry the story, even if he had taken us to the end of the plot, we would still be left with an incomplete book. The Golden Compass doesn't quite achieve the majestic poetry of Tolkien's powerful sagas, or the sinewy gravity of Ursula K. Le Guin's Wizard of Earthsea, or the wit of Russell Hoban's fable The Mouse and His Child. But it is still very grand indeed. There is scene after scene of power and beauty (.....) The Golden Compass is long, but it is told simply and draws us on, as one crisis blossoms out of another As always, Pullman is a master at combining impeccable characterizations and seamless plotting, maintaining a crackling pace to create scene upon scene of almost unbearable tension. This glittering gem will leave readers of all ages eagerly awaiting the next installment of Lyra's adventures.
