The Subtle Knife

I didn't find the sequel to The Golden Compass as interesting as the first book.  I rated them the same on goodreads regardless.  I like the introduction of the new character Will.  I found him intriguing especially the whole dynamic of him and his mother.  I like the friendship between Lyra and him.  It just wasn't as much of a page-turner as the first one.  Still, I'm going to finish the trilogy.  I already started The Amber Spyglass.
