I have read the first two books of the triology and am reading the third one now. Pullman is a good writer and his trilogy, at least the first two books, are a fun read. But as you get near the end of the first book, the anti-Christianity themes get stronger. He finally attacks the whole concept of original sin and he certainly hates the church. The third book of the series, The Amerber Spyglass, is so laden with hatred for the church that the writing gets bogged down from the beginning. If the producers want to bring all three books to screen, then they will not be able to avoid the implications. He also hates C. S. Lewis. You could call these the anti-Narnia books. He begins his story in a wardrobe, although the difference is vast from the very beginning.
