So I'm more than half way through this and even though it is by no means as action packed (so far) as the first book, I would have to say that I'm enjoying more than the first one. You become even more emotionally involved with the characters and Will and Lyra have such a strange yet perfect relationship. The idea of children are different from adults is continued in this book by the presence of Specters that only attack those who can see them (adults).
The way that the author has connected the worlds, and the fact that in multiple worlds people are researching Dust, though it's called different things in the different worlds, is all very well done! Again, in this book, the children show more courage and cunning then I have ever seen in real life, but it simply adds to the story. I also like the fact that the author shows that the kids are scared but they go through with what they have to and it usually comes out to their advantage. :) Will hopefully be finished with it tonight or tomorrow.
