I love his dark materials! I agree the movie was such a disappointment. I liked the amber spyglass the best although I threw it out a window when I first read it. (I get overly entwined with my books so if it doesnt go how I think it should I get mad) have you read the three small companion books he wrote to go with them? I only have Lyras London and a Trip to the North Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using proboards Iv felt like throwing a book or two out of the window too I can't remember what it's calked but on in particular got me raging mad it was about teens that were spy's and at the end the main characters "meant to be girlfriend" got blown up didn't finish the series of books after that

Michaela Her Fearful Symmetry is about estranged twin sisters, one of whom passes away and leaves her flat (and almost everything else) to her twin Nieces, as long as her estranged twin doesn't enter the flat. I guess it's part family drama (as the twins try to find out what happened between their Mum & Aunt amongst other things) and part Ghost Story (as their Aunt stays on as a Ghost). It's not written in a typical horror/ghost story way either, their Aunt seems to think and act (as much as possible) like your average person but just so happens to be a Ghost. I hope that makes sense.
