The Golden Compass/Northern Lights - 7/10. Not exactly epic, but I would definitely read again. It was fun and mostly well-paced, and despite the hype around the movie the Church is nowhere near the mustache twirling villains I expected/people claimed. Nearing the end, however, I couldn't help but feel it could be so much more. Maybe the rest of the series is, though. I've got other shit to read before I buy the next, however.
