I don't think it went that far to be fair! It was about love, not lust! I thought the last book was a let down too, but now I've been through them four times I think I've really got at what Pullman was trying to say - it's difficult to understand it but re-reading really does bring it out.

Now I have a pile of vintage children's fantasy to read as my parents have brought me my ancient stack of Rupert the Bear annuals (about 1954 - 1980) - they are lovely! There's not enough Raggety though....
