I thought this was a magical book those of you who have intended to read it should do so right away! It is an enthralling read quite unlike any other book ive read the story full of twists and turns and the plot thicker than porridge! I promise you that you will enjoy this book and will be dying to find out what happens to lyra in the other books after you have finished the first!
