im currently rereading golden compass and wow, a lot of interesting things happen in this book. But I think its funny how one of the main things that people seem to remember/reference when talking about the books or movie (especially movie) are ARMORED BEARS
Like yeah, there's a lot of stuff happening, but there's also ARMORED FUCKING BEARS
"whats it about?"
There's a show adaptation that's apparently pretty good on HBO, and I really had no idea how popular the series was when I was younger, but it certainly seems to hold up so far
