Re: His Dark Materials Series

*folds hands across chest*
I like the Bible better..


*grins*
Is true.
*grins devilishly*

But those books.. are just.. brilliant. Excellent metaphysical creativity, very eloquent characters and a stupendous marvellousness in the personalities. Truly a magnificent work.

Still, the Bible is better.
God wrote it.
Can't beat God. :)


I'm hyper.
My bad.


Great books, that's a fact.
