It was the Golden Compass here in Finland too... (in Finnish of course)

I loved the first book, and the second one was good too, but the third one had some really weird ideas... But all in all it is a great story, and I can't wait to see it on the big screen! It will be interesting to see how they do everything. The books are quite long and have a lot of different things there.

Also I'm happy they're making it now, when the daemons etc. can actually be done so that they look right. (not that the story has even been complete for very long, so worries for it being made before the animation and all was good enough were quite needless...)

Hmmm, 2007 is so far away...
