Took two days off work (only needed one in the end) and was at Waterstones when it opened to pick up my copy on the day of release. Not sure if was the spellbinding read I was hoping for, but it was enjoyable, and I love the world Pullman has created, and it gave me a couple of days off work to read, mooch and relax so definitely worth it. Fred has now had an offer from Nottingham to go with his one form Birmingham, so it is looking good for uni. he's busy at the moment doing his Geography fieldwork on Wheatsheaf Common, although after 4 days of it his enthusiasm is waning.
