Rowling drops the gay bomb
Lise:
Ally, I just wish I had the chance to read the books at a younger age. Fan jealousy does exist! I can't remember exactly how old I was picking up the first, but I do remember being slightly confused when told that The Amber Spyglass was in the adult section (taboo, I tell ya!). Finishing the series, then going back and reading Pullman's other works was almost disappointing- I wanted a sequel :P (off-topic, but anyone know when Book of the Dust will be released?).
One can argue about whether or not Harry Potter was better suited than HDM in reaching a "wider audience" of children and adults, but I'm giving Ally props for throwing out that HDM fans "were the ones with a deeper interest in reading" (o/, Ally!). Or maybe I've just been reading Harry Potter too informally :P.
Hehe, you can judge the value of each series by how many religious groups riled up.
supersheep:
I remember waiting years for the arrival of the Amber Spyglass. OK, only two years, but it seemed like about forty-six.
Best wait ever.
Oli:
My brother is a huge fan of HDM and to the best of my knowledge hasn't read a novel in at least a year. That aside they certainly appeal to a niche compared with harry potter.
