Review of 'The Amber Spyglass (His Dark Materials, Book 3)' on 'Goodreads'

Third book in the series. Still an amazing world - or should I say 'still amazing worlds'?
Mr Pullman did his best to create a fantastic set and I enjoyed most of it.

Most? (No spoilers but my own opinion follows, proceed at your own peril.)

Yes... the end of this one felt a bit 'forced', as if this book was more a battle of willpower than a bout of inspiration. Maybe I'm totally wrong but there you have it. My view.

Still kudos to the author for pulling off such an epic fantasy story.

Review of 'The Amber Spyglass (His Dark Materials, Book 3)' on 'Goodreads'

What a wonderful story! As with any book series, I am sad to say goodbye to the characters. However, The ending was what I expected and the writing was spot on. The third book is exciting, thrilling, and moving. The whole series is wonderful and I can't wait to pass this on to my tween.
